Following over six years of research, SCHOTT successfully replaced natural gas with hydrogen in industrial-scale glass production, maintaining the same high-quality standards during a three-day continuous run. This pioneering innovation tackles the environmental challenges of high-temperature glass melting, a process requiring up to 1,700°C, and sets a new benchmark for decarbonizing the industry. Utilizing a 5,000 Nm3 hydrogen tank and specially adapted burners, SCHOTT demonstrated stable melting, progressing from 35% hydrogen admixture to 100%, proving hydrogen as a viable alternative to natural gas. #hydrogennews #greenhydrogen #schott 📚Grab Our FREE H2 ebook Today: https://www.hydrogenfuelnews.com/featured-news/ 🚘Like Cars?
