great video, really enjoyed the insights on the process! but honestly, i feel like they oversimplified the complexity of recycling glass. it’s such a crucial topic that deserves more attention. thoughts?
really enjoyed the insights in this video, it’s fascinating to see the process behind everyday items. however, i can't help but wonder if the focus on these materials is overshadowing the importance of sustainability in manufacturing. like, are we really making enough effort to ensure these processes don’t harm the planet?
Video uploaded 4 hrs ago. ..actual footage used in video is like 14 years ago😢.... ... ❤loved this episode/documentary when it was actually released....my old memories 😊
this video was really informative and showcased some fascinating processes! however, i can't help but think that while we're advancing in glass and solar technologies, we might be neglecting more sustainable alternatives. what do you all think?
That's not far off, tbh. One landfill operator I watch on youtube is considering digging into old landfill cells, and is setting out current ones where they CAN be easily mined out later.
An element is just the pure root substance, e.g. carbon, oxygen, aluminium, mercury, etc. A compound is a mixture of multiple elements, e.g. steel, carbon dioxide, sodium bicarbonate, etc. 'Chemical' is a loose word as it can be difficult to define. In layman's terms, a chemical is often an artificially produced and refined substance, like gasoline, ethanol, toluene, etc. But in chemistry terms, all matter classifies as chemicals.
So why doesn’t the small glass strand break when wound onto the spool? You would think solar panels like that would have more output then those tiny wires could provide (amps)
Those wires are waay oversized. This episode shows a rather old way of making solar panels. The ones seen here are 100-150 watts or so, which isn't all that much. The polycrystalline panel, the second one they show, is even smaller, probably 50 watts.
More green projects. Ocean fronts when you need to replace sand don't dreg it up use desert sand or go to a rock mine put rocks through a thing that crushes it to sand size and use that. Why well it reduces Ocean and river sand use it makes more sand it makes places for kids to Play at the water and as the water does its thing and washes some sand away wich will require replacing will end up making more needed and required sand. Yes water sand and the other sands I talked about are different desert is to round crushed rock is to um ruff water is just right said the girl who broke into the sand house.
I know right... and people wonder why things aren't made in the US anymore... bunch of union Bill Nye lookin guys putzing around like they're tinkering on a hobby in their backyard garden shed 😂
@Science Channel: What is "aluminum"? We don't have it in Australia. Is is some type of aluminous metal only found in North America? Also, what is "soddering fluks"? What is it made of?
What is 5/1000 of an inch in real world measurement? North American industry should be using metric, even in 2007, for world trade purposes. People need to be exposed to those measurements or nothing will ever change.
were running out of rough construction suitable sand, which is rough and locks together better than other form factors of sand, which while it might overlap in SOME cases with glass making sand, the properties youre looking for are entirely different, you just need relatively pure, or impure in the ways you want, or impure but easily purified, silica sand for glass, vs construction/beach suitable sand where all you need is something thats coarse, and gritty, and gets everywhere.
There's more to like beyond the educational value (the methodical processes, the cool machines, the soothing narration, the banger background music), but if you legitimately hate everything about the videos, no one is forcing you to watch them.
@@HankyBeagle Have you seen any of the newer seasons (about 26 onward)? They feature increasingly obscure items often specific to the culture of the region they're filming in, and those segments tend to be more informative. Season 29 had a lot of traditional French products I hadn't heard of before (callisons, pastis, Laguiolle knives, Marseille soap, petanque balls, etc.).
Because profit is more important than sustainability or quality.. glass can be reused or repurposed for other useful things unlike most plastics that can’t be reused for new bottles once it’s recycled.
This How its Made video on solar panels is the most useless video ever. It skipped on how solar cells are made, it just assembled the solar panel. It should be renamed "How Its Assembled" instead of "How Its Made". Useless!
The title of the segment was not "Photovoltaic cells" but "Solar panels." During season 1 (which that segment was from), the show was still small and limited to domestic manufacturing processes in Canada. The photovoltaic cells were probably made elsewhere.
i love seeing people complain about the editing and music on these like it wasn't made in 2007.
Morons
I love you 🥰😎✌️
Exactly, those people are STUPUD AND WAS BORN AFTER THE BEST ERA
Haven't seen anyone saying that
I love this specific eras music and narrator. The music is so weird.
Whenever i look online for "how its made" i can never find episodes with this narrator. Grew up watching this show. Its therapeutic in a way, calming
His name is Brooks Moore
Yes Brooks T. Moore was the best narrator of this show. They also used narrator Zac Fine but only for 2 seasons.
Brooks Moore is a top tier narrator
@@baileyrobertson6006 I finally know the amazing mans name. Thank you sir
Dont mean to be a dick but i was the one who mentioned his name
Been watching this when I was a kid. Glad to see it digitalized into youtube for us to revisit!
I love watching this show!
I also love watching this.
If either of you guys are wondering: it's also available to stream on Max.
What is amazing is that someone had to think that all up before it was done.
Fiber optics are so cool.
Reminds me of when I was a kid watching this with my dad. Good times. Much better times
This narrator and the lady one I grew up with now I listen to go to sleep 😊
I've been watching this program for years ! I just love it !
That hot glass sorting machine was just amazing
Omg I love these kinds of shows!! How It’s Made was the best.
I've watched as many episodes as I could find!!
I know all the random things I do because of how it's made. People don't believe me when I say TV taught me my random knowledge
استمر في عرض هكذا تقارير ممتعة ومفيدة .. شكرا
Absolutely Fascinating!👍🙏🙂
great video, really enjoyed the insights on the process! but honestly, i feel like they oversimplified the complexity of recycling glass. it’s such a crucial topic that deserves more attention. thoughts?
Keep it comming I have learnt alot thank you so muxh❤
thank goodness solar panels arent made like this anymore or they would still very pricey like were in the early 2000s
I love these compilations!!
So much of our world is so fascinating !

I love these videos..so informative
Agreed
No you…
It’s wild how mayo is just eggs, oil, and vinegar whipped together so smoothly do you love it or avoid it
I love this guy's voice !!!
WOW 👌 👏 😊
Good process!!! i like this video

❤loved this episode/documentary when it was actually released....my old memories 😊
Yeah, I mean, hell, I thought these were from the mid-/late-90s, going by the videography, and by nostalgia...
Where is the Hydroponic farm located? That is amazing!
For accurate recycling bins with all segregation has to be given to public in clean hygienic manner so it becomes easy in sorting out waste plants
Hey How About The Production Of Aluminum,Tin & Steel/Stainless
Bro I swear listening to this while studying will give you a GPA of 4.5
Not if you start off your sentence with "Bro" it won't
Wow nice 👏 😊
Where can I watch the og episodes? These are nice but the lady’s voice was very relaxing and the sound itself seemed to be a little more subdued
Neat. Is this really how it's made?
this video was really informative and showcased some fascinating processes! however, i can't help but think that while we're advancing in glass and solar technologies, we might be neglecting more sustainable alternatives. what do you all think?
who ever made episodes he my top star
Algo que es nuevo para mí vida
crazy think in the future old landfills will be the futures quarry mines.

What does "A chemical Element" mean? Aren't all elements chemicals
Metals aren't chemicals 😊. Chemicals are typically substances, often refined.
An element is just the pure root substance, e.g. carbon, oxygen, aluminium, mercury, etc. A compound is a mixture of multiple elements, e.g. steel, carbon dioxide, sodium bicarbonate, etc. 'Chemical' is a loose word as it can be difficult to define. In layman's terms, a chemical is often an artificially produced and refined substance, like gasoline, ethanol, toluene, etc. But in chemistry terms, all matter classifies as chemicals.
@@ChristopherWoods In layman's terms, maybe. But in chemistry terminology, all matter classifies as chemicals.
So why doesn’t the small glass strand break when wound onto the spool?
You would think solar panels like that would have more output then those tiny wires could provide (amps)
the glass's ingredients mix uses materials that create very flexible glass...
Those wires are waay oversized. This episode shows a rather old way of making solar panels. The ones seen here are 100-150 watts or so, which isn't all that much. The polycrystalline panel, the second one they show, is even smaller, probably 50 watts.
I like that whenever you watched any of these vids they were at least 15 years old and outdated

They done industrialized my agriculture
I read "hydroponic lettuce" as "hypnotic lettuce"
6 made a day 😮.. im not surprised..lol.. high production there..🙄

Noise = music
Isn't necessary.
@Science Channel: What is "aluminum"? We don't have it in Australia. Is is some type of aluminous metal only found in North America?
Also, what is "soddering fluks"? What is it made of?
Soldering flux, it helps the solder weld two parts together.
Bigstackd has a few kilos of it
'Aluminum' is the American pronunciation of aluminium.
❤
The landfill with the metals reminds of Superman
Wow 😂
Why do they say soddering instead of SoLdering?
I hope a lot of those processes have moved on since this was made
Sand! ... And more sand!
I gotta call B.S. in the no loss of metal, Aluminum can loose as much as 5% turning into dross during melting
i believe he means no loss of metal properties, in which aluminum is great at, not volume. volume loss in recycling is unavoidable.
@@giornikitop5373 ok I'll can accept that. Didn't think of that TBH
the crane delivers load after load O.O
👁 👄 👁
Sus
if they manufacture solar panels manually as in the video, then it's better close and go home
Each solar panel took an hour to produce, and 6 were produced each day at that facility? That’s not very productive. At least 8 should be made.
You can tell how old this is because they left a PCB right on top of the trash pile.
I loved these episodes when they came out on TV.
The incessant music is hideous and obnoxious.
❤😂😂🎉🎉🎉😢😢😮😮😅😅
Why are under titles being given so annoying irritating when not needed it hides the visuals
maaaaan all those now classic cars.. just gone
Why is the music from gta v loading screen.
Cellulose insulation.. do they *have* to use a cigarette of all things to test it? Disgusting.
What is 5/1000 of an inch in real world measurement? North American industry should be using metric, even in 2007, for world trade purposes. People need to be exposed to those measurements or nothing will ever change.
Point of information, sand is not abundant, we're believe it or not running-out worldwide due to its uses in basically every product.
were running out of rough construction suitable sand, which is rough and locks together better than other form factors of sand, which while it might overlap in SOME cases with glass making sand, the properties youre looking for are entirely different, you just need relatively pure, or impure in the ways you want, or impure but easily purified, silica sand for glass, vs construction/beach suitable sand where all you need is something thats coarse, and gritty, and gets everywhere.
@@rjwaters3 Ah yes, this is right, it was the interlocking sand you mentioned that's short on supply.
All I ever hear now is a bootleg hugbees
How do they even come up with fiber optics. Like really lol just doing some “science” one day and now you got glass passing data thru it
Are they going to update failed industries like hydroponics? eg, How It isn't Made Anymore
glass breaks soooo that's bullpoop
😂😂damn interesting.
Until COMMERCIALS!
In a 5 minute program 😂😅😂
I do more CHANNEL surfing than I actually get to watch 😅🎉😂
JOKEE JOKEE
What’s so popular about this city. It’s a monstrosity in a desert.
i hate these videos. they explain absolutely nothing
There's more to like beyond the educational value (the methodical processes, the cool machines, the soothing narration, the banger background music), but if you legitimately hate everything about the videos, no one is forcing you to watch them.
@@dinohall2595 what a profound comment. good job! people like me watch them hoping to actually learn something and are repeatedly let down.

There are reasons bottles were switched from glass to plastic
Because profit is more important than sustainability or quality.. glass can be reused or repurposed for other useful things unlike most plastics that can’t be reused for new bottles once it’s recycled.
Iritating "music"...
Amazing content but the music in the background is so annoying
So you have chosen death.
How old are you
The car recycling one was kinda bunk.
They should blur out that double headed eagle as if it were a swastika.
No use of music please it's very unfair

While interesting, it would be much more watchable without the constant music.
Well when this was filmed like 15 years ago that's how they aired. So it's Impossible to remove the music.
The shitty 90s - 2000s music is nostalgic
It's way better then the other narrator and music. This is way more watchable
This music is peak shut yo mouf
This is how it's made. You cant dis on this
