Landfills are engineered at some cost to retain nasty liquids and gases that are produced. Glass doesn't need any of that.

Or, if you're going to put glass in a landfill, it could be cheaper to put it into a glass-only landfill that wouldn't need those protections.

If you're going to burn the waste them removing glass first makes that easier.
