Measures to Improve the Melting Capacity of Float Glass Furnaces
Based on the operating experience of domestic and international float glass furnaces, the main measures to enhance the melting capacity of float glass furnaces can be summarized as follows: optimizing furnace dimensions, utilizing high-calorific-value fuels and efficient burners, upgrading refractory materials, implementing full furnace-width batch charging, extending the fusion zone, increasing flame coverage, increasing the number of burners, raising melting temperatures, and adopting electric boosting. 01 Optimized Furnace Dimensions The furnace dimensions must match the desired melting capacity, particularly the…
