GLASS-MELTING EQUIPMENT AND PROCESS

Process for melting glass in which, during a first phase, use is made of flow DO1 of an oxygen-rich oxidizer for the combustion of a fuel in the combustion chamber 100, the oxygen-rich oxidizer being preheated by heat exchange with an oxidizer that is less rich in oxygen, said less rich oxidizer bei...

Summary:Process for melting glass in which, during a first phase, use is made of flow DO1 of an oxygen-rich oxidizer for the combustion of a fuel in the combustion chamber 100, the oxygen-rich oxidizer being preheated by heat exchange with an oxidizer that is less rich in oxygen, said less rich oxidizer being heated via heat exchange with the flue gases generated, and during a second phase, use is made, as oxidizer, of a reduced flow DO2 of the oxygen-rich oxidizer and also a flow DA2 of the heated less rich oxidizer; and equipment for the implementation of said melting process.
