Abstract

A method for sorting waste glass into its individual colour components has a crusher for comminuting the waste glass, a classifier for forming fractions of approximately equally sized fragments, which classifier is arranged downstream of the crusher, a separating device which separates the fragments, a colour recognition device which recognises or determines the colour of the fragments and a pneumatic separator which feeds the fragments identified according to colour to assigned classifying containers. In addition, a slide chute is provided on which the colour recognition device and the pneumatic separator are arranged. The pneumatic separator has compressed air nozzles which permit the passing fragments to be fed with compressed air in the plane of the slide chute but perpendicularly with respect to the slideway.
