39 7 Read the article and then answer the questions. Supermarkets launch eco-friendly plastic milk bags. Could this be the end of the milk bottle? Milk bottles are made from glass or from plastic. Glass milk bottles contain 0.5 litres of milk. When the milk is used up the empty bottles are returned to be re-used. Glass milk bottles are re-used 24 times on average. The glass to make new milk bottles is produced when a mixture of sand, limestone, soda and recycled glass is heated to about 600 C in a furnace. There are almost unlimited amounts of the raw materials needed to produce this glass. About 35% of used glass is recycled. The most common plastic milk bottles contain 2 litres of milk. When the milk is used up the empty bottles are discarded as waste. The plastic used to make these milk bottles is poly(ethene). Poly(ethene) is produced from crude oil by first using fractional distillation, then cracking the naphtha fraction and finally polymerising the ethene. About 5% of used poly(ethene) is recycled. The new plastic milk bags contain 2 litres of milk. The milk bags are also made from poly(ethene). A milk bag uses 75% less poly(ethene) than is used to make the poly(ethene) milk bottles. When the milk is used up the empty bags are discarded as waste. (a) Describe what happens in fractional distillation so that fractions, such as naphtha, are separated from crude oil.
