Oxy Fuel Furnaces
Typical oxy fuel furnace01
Introducing...Oxy-Fuel melting generally makes fuel-firedglass furnaces more efficient than ordinary air-fuel furnaces.
They eliminate the need for regenerators orrecuperators, which simplifies furnace operationand maintenance, and also extends furnacecampaign life, it now being determined by themelter itself.
A correctly designed Oxy-Fuel furnace will resultin improved glass quality and can increase glassmelting capacity.

Innovation creates:Improved efficiencyEliminates the need for combustion fan,and enables an improvement in fuelefficiency providing energy savings
Improved glass qualityBest use of refractories and designenhancements minimise glass defects
Long campaign lifeInnovative design features allowmaximum resistance to wear
Reduced emissionsGeneration of NOx is minimised
Simplified maintenance
Two of the main benefits of an Oxy-Fuel furnaceare the improvement in glass quality that can beachieved, and the increase in campaign life.
The key factor in making this happen however liesin the design solution. This is where theexperience and technology held within TECOproves invaluable. Our integrated approach to allaspects of furnace design and required operatingparameters allows us to provide site-specific,custom solutions for every application.
Our extensive knowledge of glass meltingprocesses makes us uniquely qualified to evaluatelimiting factors such as fuel cost, oxygen andemission control, increased throughput,production gain and glass quality in order todeliver a successful project plan andimplementation.
Oxy -Fuel furnaces are an ideal way of avoidingpollution as they virtually eliminate nitrogenfrom the production process.
NOx emissions are substantially reduced.
Furnace efficiency is improved as the need forheat recovery systems is removed with theelimination of the combustion air fan andreduction of hot fan energy requirements.
ExperienceKey fact about delivery of large furnace project.
Electrode selectionTECO will provide the correct electrode materialdepending on glass chemistry and ensure thecorrect size, shape and method of installationas determined by current density requirements.
Mixed batch considerationsTECO can implement batch plant improvementsat existing facilities without interruption to glassproduction t0 improve mixed batch consistency,or provide a new batch plant at a newinstallation.
