due to its unique properties, hydrogen has many applications in glass manufacturing:
cutting and polishing
to supplement or replace air-fuel combustion applications to increase heat transfer and result in cutting or polishing glass more efficiently
heat treating
to supplement or replace air-fuel combustion applications for annealing, tempering, strengthening and toughening to increase heat transfer and result in heat treating glass more efficiently
melting and softening
to supplement or replace air-fuel combustion applications to increase heat transfer and result in melting or softening glass faster
atmosphere control
to prevent detrimental reactions such as the formation of glass defects and help protect the chambers/equipment where glass is formed
supply options
air products can help you determine the most economical supply option for your particular application and geographic location. industrial gases are typically provided in gaseous and liquid form through a variety of supply systems
apex temporary emergency gas services
short-term or emergency industrial gas supply for start-ups, peak demand periods, planned or unplanned maintenance activities, and plant or pipeline turnarounds.
bulk supply
delivered by truck and stored on your site either as a liquid in cryogenic tanks or as a gas in high-pressure tubes based on your volume, desired pressure, purity level, flow rate, and operating pattern.
cylinders
the traditional solution for low volume gas supply. cylinders can be supplied in a full range of sizes from 10 to 50 liters, pressures and gas purities for a wide range of gases and gas mixtures. for larger volumes, manifolded cylinder packs are available.
on-site hydrogen gas generation
on-site gas generation helps sustainability-minded customers lower their carbon footprint, boost energy efficiency, increase throughput, enhance end product quality, and improve environmental performance.
pipeline supply
located in major industrial locations around the world, pipelines offer customers with large product demands a range of benefits, including reliable, safe and flexible supply in a cost-effective way.
