The Glass Batch Optimizer programme is designed to:
• Improve reaction and handling of glass dry batch raw materials
• Improve pile formation and, subsequently, furnace melting efficiency
• Reduce scrap and improve glass product quality
• Reduce maintenance and/or production slowdowns based on improved cleanliness of dry batch augers, hoppers, and chargers
• Optimise moisture content to reduce electrical and fuel consumption
• Reduce water consumption
• Improve furnace refractory life
This programme has been successfully deployed in multiple furnaces with documented savings. Nalco dedicated chemists, engineers, and senior technical consultants provide best-in-class services. Sales and service engineers provide onsite assistance worldwide.
