UN METODO PARA FUNDIR UN MATERIAL,PARTICULARMENTE UN VIDRIO

摘要

Molten material is heated by submerged combustion of hydrogen with oxygen so that the product of combustion injected into the melt is low in volume and consists essentially of water vapor which is relatively soluble in a material such as molten glass. Preferred embodiments involve liquefying the batch materials in a first stage and subjecting the liquefied materials to submerged combustion in a second stage.
