There are a variety of ways to increase combustion efficiency when melting glass. These include:
- oxygen enrichment
- oxygen lancing
- oxyfuel boosting
all oxyfuel
Using oxygen instead of air in combustion processes eliminates nitrogen and increases flame temperatures. Oxyfuel solutions also raise the concentration of CO2 and H2O in the vicinity of the flame. And since these gases are mainly responsible for thermal radiation, they make gas jets more efficient.
We offer a range of oxygen-based combustion solutions. These innovative technologies bring a host of benefits including:
- Reduced emissions / CO2 footprint
- Energy savings
- Increased productivity
- Improved glass quality
Improved heat transfer.
Burner technologies
Deployed correctly, burners help control heat input more accurately, improve glass circulation and enhance batch melting. We offer a range of burners tailored to individual applications.
Oxy Service: AGA Gas’s Oxy Service is designed to keep furnaces running with virtually no interruptions. It is a fast, efficient delivery service that helps prolong the service life of furnaces. It also enables manufacturers to continue production during regenerator or recuperator repairs by eliminating the need for a heat recovery device.
