grammar and accuracy
There are several grammar and usage issues that need to be corrected. For instance, 'The firstly stage' should be 'The first stage', and 'it should be maintained in glass factory' could be clearer. Try to improve grammatical accuracy for a higher score.
vocabulary
You could use more varied vocabulary to make your writing more engaging. Avoid repetitive phrases like 'should be'. Instead of 'it should be burnt in furnace with the high temperature', try 'it is melted in a furnace at high temperatures'.
coherence
Provide clearer transitions between steps to improve coherence. Using words like 'next', 'then', and 'finally' helps, but also make sure each step is connected logically.
content clarity
Make sure all relevant details are included clearly. For example, mentioning the step where glass bottles are cleaned after collection could make your explanation more complete.
structure
The structure of the essay follows a logical sequence, making it easier for the reader to understand the recycling process.
transitions
Good use of transitional words like 'firstly', 'secondly', and 'finally' helps in maintaining the flow of the essay.
content detail
The description of the different stages of glass bottle recycling is thorough and detailed.
