摘要: A method of making a glass product includes the steps of: melting a batch of a plurality of glass raw materials in a melting tank to form a glass melt; heating at least one of the plurality of glass raw materials and the glass melt using at least one fuel burner by reacting hydrogen and oxygen; withdrawing the glass melt from the melting tank; obtaining a glass product, the glass product having an Fe2+ to Fe3+ ratio of less than 0.2 or less than 0.05 and having at least one of less than 80 bubbles in a size range of from 0.1 mm to 0.2 mm per 10 kg of glass and less than 2 bubbles of a size larger than 0.2 mm per 10 kg of a glass.

摘要: The present invention relates generally to a process for producing glass products and to an apparatus suitable for the purpose. In the process, a melting apparatus is provided with a melting tank for producing a glass melt from glass raw materials and a top furnace. Part of the surface of the melting region of the melting apparatus is covered with the glass raw materials and at least a small portion of the surface of the melting region is uncovered. In addition, energy is introduced in such a way that a vertical temperature difference can be established, such that the temperature of the glass melt at the base is greater than the temperature of the atmosphere in the top furnace.

摘要: A method of making glass products includes: heating material to obtain a glass melt; heating the glass melt in a melting tank having a melting tank bottom, the glass melt having a melt volume, a melt surface, and a viscosity of 102 dPas at a temperature above 1580° C. The glass melt is heated such that at least some of the glass melt has a viscosity of 102.5 dPas or less. An amount of thermal energy introduced directly into the melt volume is more than 60% of a total amount of thermal energy introduced into the glass melt. A maximum difference between a temperature at a location on the melt surface and a temperature at a location at the melting tank bottom vertically underneath the location on the melt surface is such that a difference in glass melt densities is less than 0.05 g/cm3 per meter distance between the locations.
