The CRAFTEM project seeks to reduce carbon emissions in the glass manufacturing industry by demonstrating a patented combustion strategy called Auxiliary Firing. This method aims to enhance energy efficiency and reduce nitrogen oxide emissions in glass melting furnaces, ensuring compliance with environmental standards.
Each year, the EU’s Primary glass melters producing container and flat glass consume some 150 PJ of energy and emit some 10 Gigatonnes of fuel related CO2.
Most of the EU’s large glass melting furnaces already employ reversing regenerators to achieve a thermal efficiency of 50% or more, a very good figure for a process operating at about 1600˚C.
The industry is facing conflicting challenges to reduce its carbon emissions while respecting ever tighter limits on nitrogen oxide emissions since incr…
