The recent study summarizes the possible applications of glass waste and identifies their new eventual applications. Several possibilities of reuse were revealed and classed into three categories construction materials (concrete, cement and mortars), ceramic materials (ceramic glass, tiles, porcelain brick and glazes) and miscellaneous (zeolite, filtration media and abrasive media). The preparation procedures of these materials from waste glass as an aluminosilicate precursor are taken into consideration. The impact of this strategy on the environment and the economy is shortly reviewed. The results exhibited here show new prospects for glass cullet valorization, in various fields, providing an innovative and eco-friendly solution for waste minimization as well as resources conservation.
