Mineral Wool Production

Mineral wool production can be improved in many ways with the help

of oxygen. In a cupola furnace, oxygen can be used in various different ways.

Meanwhile it is industry standard to use oxygen injection in a cupola 

for producing mineral wool. 

Oxy-fuel burners are widely used in hearth furnaces

for glass wool production. 

- Energy and Savings

- Increase of Melt Rates

- Increase of Flexibiliy

- Increase of Process Temperatures

- Reduction of Flue Gas Amount and CO₂ Emissions

In a cupola furnace the oxygen use fas the following features:

- Energy and Coke Savings

- Increase of Melt Rates

- Increase of Flexibility

- Increase of Process Temperatures

- Increase of Product Temperature and Yield

- Improved Properties for Spinning

- Reduction of Blast Rate and Flue Gas Amount

- Reduction of CO₂ Emissions

Oxygen can be used for decarbonization of mineral wool production.. 

We offer technical consultation and equipment to bring more oxygen

applications into your mineral wool or glass wool production.
