MODERN INNOVATIONS IN FLOAT GLASS MANUFACTURING TECHNOLOGY

Abstract

The article investigates innovations in float glass manufacturing. The object of the study is the float process itself and its key improvements introduced between 2014 and 2025. The purpose of this review is to analyze significant technological advancements driven by the global focus on environmental sustainability and overall technological progress. The main findings of the study highlight progress in several areas: improvements in melting furnace designs to enhance energy efficiency and production flexibility; the integration of sustainable practices, including the use of alternative fuels, increased cullet usage, and the development of carbon capture technologies; the evolution of coating technologies (low-emissivity [Low-E], solar control, self-cleaning); the growing role of automation, artificial intelligence (AI), and digitalization for process optimization; and the emergence of specialized glass types (smart glass, solar glass).

У роботі досліджуються інновації у виробництві листового скла флоат-методом. Об’єктом дослідження є сам флоат-процес та його ключові удосконалення, впроваджені у період з 2014 по 2025 рік. Мета огляду – проаналізувати значні технологічні досягнення, зумовлені глобальною увагою до екологічної стійкості та загальним технологічним прогресом. Основні результати дослідження висвітлюють прогрес у кількох напрямках: вдосконалення конструкцій плавильних печей для підвищення енергоефективності та гнучкості виробництва; інтеграція сталих практик, включаючи використання альтернативних видів палива, збільшення частки склобою та розвиток технологій уловлювання вуглецю; еволюція технологій нанесення покриттів (низькоемісійних, сонцезахисних, самоочисних); зростаюча роль автоматизації, штучного інтелекту та цифровізації для оптимізації процесів; поява спеціалізованих видів скла (смарт-скло, сонячне скло).
