CRT Monitor E-Waste with Activated Glass
Discarded cathode-ray tube computer monitors containing phosphor-coated activated glass from the picture tube. Falls under HTS 8549.31.00.00 because of the 'glass from cathode-ray tubes or other activated glass' explicitly mentioned. These are complete end-of-life electronic assemblies for recycling.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If imported as separated CRT glass parts only, without full assembly
Isolated TV/monitor parts like activated glass panels may classify under 8529.90 for specific TV receiver components
If cleaned and processed solely as cullet for glass recycling
Purified CRT glass cullet without electronic components moves to Chapter 70 as waste glass
