New CGMâ„¢ technology from BOC to boost glass production

0

The CGM is an advanced melting technology that has been confirmed in independent tests to boost the quality and production in glass furnaces.

The Process Gas Solutions’ Technology Manager for BOC. Andre Richardson, Ph.D., will present the paper on the research at the Seventh International Seminar on Mathematical and Advanced Numerical Methods in Furnace Design and Operation.

He will compare the results of the base air-fuel case against cases for conventional oxy-fuel boosting and the CGM oxy-fuel boosting. He will highlight the unique improvements, which have been confirmed in computer simulation testing.

The CGM process is said to melt glass faster than side-fired configurations by directly applying oxy-fuel flames on the batch in a glass-melting furnace.
