Heat-exchanger needs for recovering waste heat in the glass-making industry. Final report

Ralph L. Webb, Anjali Kulkarni

Abstract

The state of the art of waste heat recovery technology in the glass-making industry is assessed. Fouling and corrosion glass furnace regenerators are reviewed. Heat recovery from the exhaust gases leaving the brick checkers regenerator of a soda lime glass furnace is addressed. Research and development needs that will advance the use of secondary heat recovery in the glass industry are identified. (LEW)
