Abstract | This study assesses the likelihood of new process technology and new practices being introduced by energy intensive industries and explores the environmental impacts of such changes. Volume 11 deals with the glass industry and examines five alternatives: (1) coal gasification, (2) direct coal firing, (3) electric melting, (4) coal, hot gas regeneration, and (5) batch preheating in terms of their impact on relative process economics and their environmental/energy consequences. |
