As one of the world’s leading supplier of sustainable glass production technologies, HORN Glass Industries stands for state-of-the-art technologies, innovative spirit and technological leadership. Driven by these values, the glass manufacturing process is continuously optimised energetically, technically and technologically.
HORN’s in-house developed e-Fusion Power Boosting System enhances the glass melting process, increases throughput, improves glass quality and reduces CO2 emissions. This technology uses electricity directly as a source of melting energy and is crucial for glass manufacturers to achieve their carbon neutrality goals in the near future since substituting fossil energy with electricity reduces CO2 emissions.
With this tailor-made technology, additional electric energy is directly inserted to the glass bath. While small and medium-sized furnaces are usually fitted with a single electrical booster, larger installations benefit from splitting the installed electrical energy between two or more separate systems. This has the greatest impact on the convection currents and high specific melting capacities can be achieved.
