Fujisash Co. logistics subsidiary Fuji Sogyo Inc. has been working with a Minnesota-based manufacturer of fluorescent-bulb-recycling equipment to develop related technology.
The two companies have created a method of removing mercury from the glass tubes by vaporizing it. The new method can cut the cost of recycling by 10-15 percent, compared with the conventional method of rinsing the tubes in water.
