A new oxy-fuel glass melting technology can help glassmakers increase
their furnace capacity, improve glass quality and/or redistribute
furnace energy more effectively.

Recently,
however, a new system* was developed that overcomes these limitations.
Rather than firing horizontally, the system directs the oxy-fuel flames
almost vertically down onto the batch surface at the charging end of
the furnace. By modifying conventional oxy-fuel melting technology, the
new melting system provides significant improvements in melting rates
and/or quality.

Heat Transfer in Glass Melting
Efficient heat transfer from the heat source to the batch is crucial in glass production. Total heat transfer can basically be described as the sum of the radiative and convective heat transfers, as shown in the equation:QT = QR + QC
where QT is the total heat transfer to the batch, QR is the radiative heat transfer and QC is the convective heat transfer.
Both
radiant (first term) and convective (second term) heat transfer depend
on well-known heat transfer variables, such as the simplified equation
shown in Equation 1, where Q is the heat to the surface (in watts), e
is the emissivity, f is the radiation function, s is the
Stefan-Boltzmann constant, g is the convection function, hc is the
convection coefficient, A is the area of the batch/glass surface under
consideration, Ts is the absolute temperature of the radiant source, Tg
is the absolute temperature of the gases and Tb is the absolute
temperature of the batch.

In conventional furnaces, the presence of relatively thick boundary layers and a low thermal driving force dictate that approximately 95% of the total heat transfer to the batch and glass bath comes from the combined radiation from the flame and superstructure. Therefore, the attainable heat transfer in conventional furnaces is a function of the melter area and the maximum temperature limit of the superstructure refractory. Since refractory materials have fixed maximum temperatures before failure, the only way to improve the radiative melting rate in fossil fuel glass furnaces is to increase the batch surface area. As a result, existing furnace technology constrains the unit melting rate of furnaces within a well-established range.
Conventional oxy-fuel
firing can enhance radiative heat transfer, but its impact on
convective transfer is small. Higher flame temperatures and the
enhanced emissivity of the combustion products increase the radiation
directly from the combustion space, but low velocities, thick boundary
layers and the relatively low temperature of combustion products in
contact with the batch and glass bath (compared to the temperature of
the flame itself) diminish the impact on the convective component.

Oxy-fuel flames contain significant concentrations of partially reacted and partially dissociated species. As these species move toward the cool batch surface, they oxidize/recombine and liberate still more energy to the surface, further enhancing the convective heat transfer. This process also increases radiative flux because the burners in the new melting system are designed to produce the majority of the high-temperature combustion reactions near the batch, thereby increasing the radiation to the batch.
The increase in total
heat transfer to the batch enables increased melting rates. Further,
since the burners are installed in the crown rather than the side
walls, fewer obstructions affect burner placement. Consequently, the
new melting system can supply more energy per square foot of batch
surface area without increasing refractory temperatures beyond normal
operating limits. The result is a melting system that enables furnaces
to melt more glass, and/or higher quality glass, in a furnace of a
given size.
Proving the New Technology
Owens Corning’s Composites group provided the first opportunity to demonstrate this new technology in a production furnace. In 1996, BOC and Owens Corning converted an oxy-fuel furnace to the new melting technology without interrupting production. During a four-month trial, the furnace produced glass at significantly higher capacity than could be achieved using horizontal-fired oxy-fuel burners alone. This study demonstrated:- A pull rate increase greater than 50% over conventional oxy-fuel capacity
- No increase in emissions on a per ton basis
- No change in analyzed glass chemistry
- No observable damage to the melter superstructure
- A reduction in glass defects

Refining the Technology
The results of the Owens Corning collaboration supported the expectation that the new vertical melting system was commercially viable. To understand the relative contributions of convective and radiant heat transfer, BOC modeled the process with computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Of particular interest were the effects of flame shape, velocity and angles on the rate of heat transfer, the area of maximum heat transfer and batch carryover. Figure 3 illustrates how the heat transfer varies from the center of the flame and confirms that the total heat transfer is significantly higher than the radiant transfer provided by conventional melting technology. The green line represents the CFD calculation of heat transfer (primarily through radiation) to the batch from the background source—i.e. the furnace structure. The red line represents the CFD calculation of heat transfer to the batch directly from the flame. The direct flame heat transfer carries a large convective component, and it decays rapidly with distance from the axis of impingement. The blue line is the total heat transfer to the batch predicted by CFD—the sum of background and direct flame transfer.To verify the implications of the CFD modeling, BOC teamed with Maxon Corp. to design and build a well-instrumented vertically firing test furnace at Maxon’s facility in Muncie, Ind. The furnace incorporated a vertically adjustable firing target to simulate the varying crown-to-batch distances found in real-world glass furnaces.
Trial
firings of burners in the test furnace validated the CFD model
predictions. As Figure 3 illustrates, a very good correlation was
obtained between the direct flame heat transfer predicted by CFD (red
line) and the direct flame heat transfer measured in the test furnace
(black squares). The test furnace data also helped to optimize burner
design and flow characteristics for installing the system in crowns of
various heights.
Commercial Demonstrations
Increased Production of Soda-Lime-Silica Glass. The first trials on soda-lime-silica glass took place in mid-1998 in a three-port air-fuel tableware furnace. The furnace’s designed pull and actual maximum pull were 60 tons per day (TPD). Attempts to increase this pull rate with port firing resulted in unacceptable deterioration in glass quality.The objectives of this trial were to determine the maximum pull rate attainable by the new melting technology with equivalent or better quality and color control; the ability and success of converting a regenerative furnace “on the fly” to 100% oxy-fuel and vertical melting; and the effect of the new melting technology on glass chemistry (if any).
This installation also provided the opportunity to demonstrate the operational flexibility of the new technology by using it both as a stand-alone melting technology (full conversion) and as a boost to the regenerative furnace. BOC engineers converted the furnace in stages from air-fuel to 100% with the new technology and ultimately back to air fuel—all without interrupting production.
Key observations from this trial included:
- Increased production to 85 TPD with no deterioration in glass quality or color
- No evidence of batch carryover from the vertical flames
- No change in glass chemistry
- Excellent color control
- More stable furnace operation
Melting Boost in a Large Regenerative Furnace. Later that same year, the capability of the new melting technology was demonstrated in a large regenerative furnace—a four-port, 750-square-foot flint container furnace equipped with approximately 1000 kw of electric boost. The plant’s management wanted to pull the furnace as hard as their forming capacity would allow, but attempts to increase pull resulted in glass temperatures at the throat that were too high for the forehearth to condition. Further increases in pull also resulted in unacceptable levels of batch stones. Therefore, the furnace was limited to pulling a tonnage equivalent to 82.5% of forming capacity.
The plant secured a 30-day variance from the production limits imposed by its environmental permit and installed the new technology. Port number one of the furnace was blocked off, and the vertical burners were installed in the port one region of the crown. At the end of the demonstration, the vertical burners were removed, and port one was returned to air fuel operation. Production was never interrupted.
The goals of this installation were to operate the new technology while reducing electric boost to achieve:
- A sustained pull rate up to full capacity of the forming line
- A throat temperature reduction
- Elimination of batch stones
In
addition to operating at higher pull and reduced electric boost levels,
the hotspot temperature was reduced by an amount that would equate to
another 10.5% increase in pull for a furnace of this size. Had the
forming equipment been able to handle the load, the fuel in the new
technology could have been increased to achieve a pull increase of
approximately 30%. (Other potential applications of the new melting
technology are discussed in the sidebar below.)
Observations in Operating Furnaces
The new technology can also inject
a disproportionate amount of energy into the charging end through
crown-mounted burners. This redistribution of energy increases the
temperature of the charging end, reducing the temperature differential
between the charging end and the hot spot. Conventional wisdom suggests
that reducing this differential below the range of 150-200 degrees F
(depending on the industry segment) would short-circuit the furnace
convection currents. However, no observable negative change in
convection currents or in the basic operation of the melter occurs with
the new technology.
Enhanced Profitability
By providing
glassmakers with a wide range of flexibility, the new system represents
not only a revolution in glass melting technology, but also a promise
of enhanced glass industry profitability.

Complete Conversions: Full CGM Furnaces
A “full CGM furnace” is an oxy-fuel furnace that incorporates vertical
CGM burners in the charging end and horizontal oxy-fuel burners in the
refining end. These installations are characterized by a high melting
rate (T/ft2) and excellent fuel efficiency. Test data suggests that, as
a rule, CGM provides capacity improvements of at least 25% over
air-fuel and conventional oxy-fuel furnaces.
A greenfield (new) furnace designed for CGM operation offers glassmakers significant benefits, including:
- Capital reduction from elimination of regenerators and recuperators
- Capital reduction from smaller furnace footprint
- Capital and operating cost reduction from elimination of electric boost system
- Fuel reduction per ton with little to no efficiency decay over the life of the furnace
- Reduction of NOx emissions
CGM Hybrid Furnaces
The
hybrid design is of specific interest to the float glass industry. As
its name implies, a hybrid furnace is a mixed design. The area of the
first two or three ports looks like a CGM furnace; there are no
air-fuel burners and no regenerators. The firing is provided by CGM
burners in the crown. The remainder of the furnace looks like a
standard regenerative float furnace, with conventional air-fuel
burners, waist and working end. In this furnace, virtually all of the
melting is done by the CGM burners, while the air-fuel zone provides
refining capacity. This design provides many of the advantages of CGM
firing, and it requires only 40-60% as much oxygen as a standard
oxy-fuel furnace. Such a design offers float glass makers the following
benefits in comparison to standard regenerative design:
- Reduced capital cost from the partial elimination of the regenerator packs
- Reduced batch carryover and reduced airflow demand through remaining regenerators (i.e., potential for furnace life extension)
- Reduced NOx emissions
- Greater capacity in the same furnace footprint
A CGM-boosted furnace is an air-fuel furnace in which CGM burners have been installed in the crown at the charging end. The number of CGM burners and the amount of fuel injected through them can vary widely, depending on furnace size and the amount of boost required. In some cases, the first one or several ports may be blocked off, with the fuel flowing instead through crown-mounted CGM burners in the affected port areas. In other cases, it will not be necessary to shut off any of the ports, but only to supplement them with CGM firing.
Though specific cases will differ, it is generally possible to use CGM to increase the capacity of an air fuel furnace by at least 25%. On furnaces in good working order, this may be taken as an increase above rated air-fuel capacity to achieve significant revenue increases with limited incremental cost.
Furnaces that
have developed pull constraints (e.g., plugged checkers, deteriorating
ports or port walls, hot spot refractory deterioration) are
particularly attractive candidates for CGM boosting. The enhanced
thermal efficiency of the CGM flames and the reduction of air-fuel
relieve the strain on regenerator air-flow, extending regenerator life.
Reduction of electric boosting also slows the process of sidewall wear.
Through these mechanisms, CGM boosting not only recovers or increases
the capacity of an air fuel furnace, but can extend the life of its
campaign. More importantly, CGM can increase the tonnage (cumulative
tons/square foot of melter area) melted over the furnace campaign.
SIDEBAR: Success at Owens Corning
“We replaced the eight existing horizontal burners with two vertical CGM burners and immediately began seeing results,” Baker said. “The furnace was easier to control because of the small number of burners and the sensitivity of the technology, and its faster melting speed enabled us to increase our throughput by 25%. But most importantly, the CGM lowered our emissions and increased our performance capabilities. Our particulate emissions have been reduced by 75%, while our NOx emissions have dropped by 80-90%, and we’re achieving better quality glass with the new system.”
Since the initial installation, Owens Corning has also begun using the CGM technology in four additional facilities, and it plans to install the technology in additional plants in the future. “It’s been a very good collaboration,” Baker said.

Oxy-fuel can be used to increase glass melting capacity for a given melting area. Also, when regenerators or recuperators deteriorate, oxy-fuel can be applied, in part or in total, to maintain the production level desired.
NOx emissions are reduced substantially with a complete oxy-fuel conversion.
Whenever oxy-fuel melting is utilised, it will generally provide an improvement in fuel efficiency when compared with traditional air-fuel melting. Other energy savings are obtained with elimination of the combustion air fan and reduction of hot fan energy requirements.
These energy savings help to offset the cost of oxygen.
Oxy-fuel
eliminates the regenerators or recuperator, which can be the overriding
factor that determines life of an air-fuel furnace. With oxy-fuel, life
is determined by the melter itself, usually resulting in a longer
campaign.
With a properly designed oxy-fuel furnace, glass quality will be improved compared to air-fuel melting. An additional benefit is the steady state operation when compared to regenerative melters.
With no regenerators or recuperator, the furnace operation and maintenance are simplified

HOTWORK RECUPERATIVE BURNER (HRB)
In a furnace without heat recovery equipment operating on natural gas at 1200oC with 10% excess air, 63% of the energy input is lost in waste gases and not actually available to the process.
With typical air preheats in excess of 1/3 of the furnace operating temperature, the Hotwork Recuperative Burner has the ability to recover part of this energy by exhausting hot waste gases through its specially designed quarl and over an integral metallic heat exchanger which, in turn, preheats incoming combustion air.
This heat recovery significantly reduces the amount of fuel required for the process and makes the HRB Burner ideal for applications where flue gas temperatures are high and load residence time at high temperature is long, such as forging and heat-treatment furnaces or batch-type furnaces.


Exhausting/Furnace Pressure Control
Since the waste gases exhaust through the burner quarl, there is no need for a conventional flue, which speeds up design and installation of the furnace. The furnace pressure is controlled by an air-driven eductor in the burner flue arrangement.
Accurate pressure control is achieved by varying the volume of air to the eductor which in turn controls the amount of waste gases drawn out of the furnace. No separate fan is required for the air to the eductor as it is supplied by the combustion air fan.
Medium Velocity
The HRB burner has a medium velocity of 70 m/s which, combined with accurate furnace pressure control and careful burner configuration, ensures even temperature uniformity and excellent heat transfer to the load.
Extended Flue Version
In order to increase the residence time of waste gases exhausting through the burner and maximise the exchange of heat between the exhaust gases and the combustion air, the HRB Burners (HRB3.5 to HRB25) can be designed with an extended flue. Please note that these burners require higher combustion air and eductor air pressures. Figures are available from Hotwork Combustion Technology Ltd on request.
Turndown and Excess Air Capability
The turndown of the HRB on natural gas is 10/1 at furnace temperatures below 1200oC. Refer to the Combustion Data Table for turndown at higher temperatures. At maximum air flow and fuel only control, excess air levels better than 500% can be achieved.
Long Flame Design
For applications where extra radiation is required, a long flame design is available.
Fuels
The HRB5 and above are suitable for natural gas, LPG, gas oil (viscosity of 34 sec. Red. 1) or dual fuel arrangement. Smaller sizes are suitable for gas only.
Ignition, Flame Supervision and Automatic Start-up
The HRB Burner is ignited by means of a premix pilot with all fuels. The burner is fitted with a sight glass and a port is provided for a UV scanner to be installed. In order to start the burner automatically and supervise the flame permanently, Hotwork Combustion Technology can also supply flame management equipment if required.
Hotwork Compact Recuperator (HCR)
The heat exchanger inside the HRB Burner is available separately, known as the Hotwork Compact Recuperator, and can be used in conjunction with a hot air burner such as the High Velocity Burner (HV) or the E-Jet Ultra Low NOx Hot Air Burner (EJ_HA). Using the recuperator separately gives the possibility of positioning the burner and the exhaust at different locations, which may be required by certain firing patterns such as around a crucible furnace (burner at the bottom, recuperator at the top). It also enables features of certain burners such as the high velocity of the HV Burner to be used with higher fuel efficiency.
Fuel Savings
The fuel saving from air preheating depends on how much heat is transferred from the exhaust gases to the combustion air (directly related to the exhaust gas temperature). Experience from operating installations indicates that air preheat temperature will be about 35% of the furnace operating temperature.

Increasing the amount of Oxygen in air from its initial 21% significantly
increases the flame temperature achieved with any fuel. For example, natural gas
burned in air has a flame temperature of 3520 F while the flame temperature of
natural gas burned in 23% O2 is 3640 F.
This effect is shown in figure

Higher flame temperatures in the glass furnace improve the heat transfer to the batch and glass. This is due to the fact that all three heat transfer mechanisms, conduction, convection, and radiation, are flame temperature dependent:
Conduction: Q (Tf – Tp)
Convection Q (Tf – Tp)
Radiation Q (Tf –
Tp)
where: Tf = Flame Temperature
Tp = Product (Lime) Temperature
At glass melting temperatures radiation is the dominant mode of heat transfer. The heat transfer rates for conduction and convection are linear with the difference between the glass and the flame temperature. The heat transfer rate due to radiation is proportional to the difference between glass and flame temperature, each raised to the fourth power. Oxygen increases the flame temperature, which greatly increases radiation, the already dominant mode of heat transfer. Thus with oxygen enrichment, more heat is absorbed by the product, less heat is lost in the exiting combustion gas, and the combustion process becomes more efficient
Oxygen Enrichment:
With this technique, oxygen is injected into the main combustion air header well ahead of the delivery point to the furnace. This pre-mix of oxygen is most common on recuperative furnaces or unit melters that have many such delivery points (hot or cold air burners) or on regenerative melters where it is desirable to use the oxygen to enhance the entire combustion process in a consistent manner. Experience is needed to deliver the right amount of heat to the right zones and to ensure safe application of the Oxygen
Oxygen Lancing:
This method has historically been the most cost-effective way to use oxygen to supplement air-fuel combustion. The strategic injection of oxygen beside, beneath or through air-fuel flames has allowed glass melters to reach campaign objectives in terms of pull rate, fuel efficiency and glass quality. The benefits of oxygen lancing accrue from having the oxygen mix with fuel where it is most needed; namely in oxygen-starved areas of the combustion space or in the under-side (glass surface side) of the air-fuel flames where flame temperature has the greatest impact on heat transfer to the melt. Knowing how many lances, where to place them and flow rates to use, allow us to deliver the most cost effective solution
Oxygen Boosting:
This method of using supplemental oxygen is relatively new to glass manufacturers and has been enabled by the emergence of superior oxy-fuel burner offerings developed for the 100% oxy-fuel conversion of melters. The boosting concept uses oxy-fuel burners positioned within the air-fuel melter to increase production, quality, efficiency and furnace stability. Depending on the needs of our customers we can tailor the operation to deliver the benefit(s) desired. Oxy-fuel boosting is typically used to increase pull rate on a furnace that is at capacity or that has been crippled due to a failure or loss of effectiveness of the air-fuel combustion system. Payback for the technology is often less than three months. The advantages of our boost technology are so significant that many furnaces, which used Air Products’ boost at the end of the previous campaign to address furnace limitations, are rebuilt and come on-stream using boost
Here, the high temperature flames of oxy-fuel combustion are placed over the cold batch to create a tremendous amount of heat transfer. The result is early batch glazing and significantly enhanced melt run-off; this superior melt rate then allows for an increase in production or a reduction in over all fuel.Talk to us to find out which of these, or other, techniques is right for you. We continue to develop new technologies to improve glassmaking

High-Performance, Energy-Efficient Burner System Developed
An outstanding example is the “Regenerative Burner System” we have developed and sold that can efficiently recover waste heat in industrial furnaces. In the “Regenerative Burner System,” two burners, each containing a heat storage vessel, alternate in combustion in intervals of less than a minute. When one burner is combusting, its exhaust goes out through the other burner's heat storage vessel. When the other burner combusts, for combustion air it uses the waste heat warmed up in the heat storage vessel. This allows it to obtain air heated to at least 1,000 degrees Celsius from 1,200 degrees Celsius exhaust and thus save approximately 50% in energy.
We are also developing natural gas burners for glass melting furnaces for manufacturing glass for bottles, automobiles, and construction materials, and more and more customers are adopting these burners as a way to dramatically reduce CO2 emissions.
