  • Patent number: 6289694
    Abstract: During the melting of glass from charging material in furnaces with burners and regenerators for the recovery of waste heat, oxygen and primary fuel are introduced into the area around the flame roots under slightly sub-stoichiometric conditions to cover the heat requirement of the melting process. In order to further reduce the levels of NOx, and CO in the waste gases by re-burning or post oxidation, secondary fuel and, further downstream, additional air are introduced beyond the flame in order to reduce the level of NOx, in or above the checkerwork by means of the secondary fuel and to carry out re-burning or post oxidation downstream by means of the supply of air, so that ultimately approximately stoichiometric combustion takes place. Before the waste gases enter a waste gas stack they are used to preheat the charging material in at least one raw material pre-heater.

  • Patent number: 6154481
    Abstract: In a glass melting furnace, a radiation screen wall is installed between a melting area and a refining area with a refining bank. This radiation screen wall leaves a flow path above the melt surface of the glass bath for the return flow of at least part of the combustion gases from the refining area to the melting area. In order to suppress a return flow of already refined and very hot glass melt from the refining area into a melting area, but still allow the charging material to melt completely as early as possible, the furnace is operated to produce at least one upward current between the middle of the melting area and the front face of the refining bank in the glass melt.

    Abstract: A tank furnace for the inertization of non-flammable batch, which contains hazardous substances, metals and less than 10% by weight of carbon, by vitrification with glass forming aggregates by producing a glassy melt. The furnace has a batch charging device and a tank, on the rim of which a furnace crown rests, electrodes for heating the melt, a supply of oxidizing gases to the melt and, as an outlet for the melt, an overflow channel which can be heated. Nozzles are installed in the bottom of the tank to introduce oxidizing gases in order to reduce the eluate values, and the electrodes are immersed in the melt from above. It is preferable to install the nozzles at sloping sidewalls of the tank which slope upwardly and outwardly.
