- A client with two end port regenerative furnaces used in flint and green glass production were looking to reduce their carbon footprint
- The furnaces were operating at 380 and 400 tpd
- Nippon Sanso installed their proprietary technology to both furnaces, drastically reducing NOx emissions
The following equipment was installed in order to reduce the NOx emissions – all specially engineered by Nippon Sanso:
- Main Oxygen Skid
- Oxygen skid control for each lance
- Lances with nozzles
- Panel view electrical cabinet
- Before installation of Nippon Sanso’s paraphernalia, the furnaces were operating at 380-400 tpd and producing 800-870 mg/Nm³ of NOx emissions at the Port Neck
- After installation, the total NOx emissions had reduced to 590-630 mg/Nm³, showing a 26.5% decrease in emissions
