  • Patent number: 11807567
    Abstract: The invention relates to a glass production method comprising the production of a glass precursor mixture for a glass furnace, in which water, sand and sodium carbonate are mixed in weight proportions of between 0 and 5%, 40 and 65%, and greater than 0 and at most 25% respectively, and, after at least 10 minutes, calcium oxide is added in a weight proportion of between 1 and 20% of the total. The invention relates to a method for producing glass using a mixture containing, in particular, calcium oxide, and a glass melting furnace, said method and furnace using a burner with a flame directed at the glass batch.
