Waste glass is primarily disposed into landfills and the remaining waste is either recycled or reused for differentpurposes. Recycling is significant as it plays a vital role in reduction of both the wastes and its harmful environmentalimpacts. In this particular study, waste glass is recycled into glass foams. The glass foam is produced at a temperature of 860degreeoC in 600sec. In order to check the morphology and mechanical strength, the prepared glass foam samples weretested structurally and mechanically. High strength values between 17.86 ± 2.41 and 28.98 ± 2.16 MPa were recorded forthe produced glass foams. The glass foam prepared in this study can be used in advanced material and structural systems.
