Quality & Productivity Improvement in Glass

OPTIMELT TCR recovers waste energy stored in regenerator checkers by preheating the fuel and endothermically reacting the fuel with the carbon dioxide (CO₂) and water (H₂O) in recycled flue gas. The endothermic reforming reaction converts the fuel to hot syngas, which is combusted with oxygen in the furnace.

OPTIMELT™ TCR Thermochemical Regenerator

The OPTIFIRE WFB offers high flame coverage and luminosity, helps reduce NOx and particulate emissions, and effectively produces a low momentum flame to minimize volatilization with no maintenance required. This burner offers a quick-release feature for easy installation and removal of internal burner components.

OPTIFIRE Wide Flame Burner

 

The OPTIFIRE XD burner is an extreme duty burner designed to offer a continuous, low- momentum flame. This burner's performance has proven successful in mitigating condensate build-up around the cooler oxygen ports and offers a quick-release feature for easy installation and removal of internal burner components.

OPTIFIRE XD Burner

The OPTIFIRE JL burner is ideal for large area coverage. This burner is based on our innovative Dilute Oxygen Combustion technology and offers reduced glass furnace emissions. With proper placement, the burner minimizes alkali volatilization and particulate formation from the glass melt, which significantly reduces furnace refractory corrosion and promotes longer furnace life.

OPTIFIRE JL Burner

This oxygen supply system is specially designed to work with Linde’s OPTIFIRE™ burner portfolio (WFB and XD burners). The system reduces net power consumption, resulting in significant cost savings over the duration of a furnace campaign.
