A process for recovering rare-earth phosphors from an interior of a lamp envelope (12). The interior of the envelope defines a wall and a base layer (14) is adhered to the wall. A coating layer (16) having the rare-earth phosphors is adhered to the base layer. The process includes flowing a gas through the envelope at a rate sufficient to remove particles of the coating layer but not the base layer. The process also includes collecting the particles of the coating layer, the particles containing the rare-earth phosphors. Lamp envelopes (12) having a base layer (14) and a phosphor coating layer (16) suitable for use with the recycling method are also discussed.
