„The overall themes are glass melting, the future of the glassindustry and environmental regulations, energy, and refractories. Topics of the 21 papers include modeling the quality of glassmelting processes, the operational experience of an oxy-fuel firedglass melter using an improved silica crown and wide flame burners, measuring particle size in the flue gas of glass melting furnaces, requirements of glass compositions for solar applications, model-based predictive control to increase the efficiency of glassproduction and energy, calculating and measuring temperaturedistributions in glass gobs between shears and blank mold, postmortem of a conventional silica brick from a soda-lime floatglass furnace crown, and refractory solutions for extra whiteglasses.“ (SciTech Book News, December 2010)
