The Only SBM specialized company in the world

We are the only company in the world specialized in the design and production of Submerged Burners Melters (SBM)

SBM features

Large contact area between flame and melt bubbles - volumic melting
Intense heat exchange between flame and melt - specific pull rate 20 t/day/m2
Intensive mixing of the melt - chemical homogeneity and fast transition from one glass composition to another
Low emission of NOx (2 times less than in conventional furnaces)
Good melting efficiency - average gas consumption 1,6 MWh/t of melt (can decrease until 1,2 MWh/t)
Wide range of granulometry of the batch - pieces of 50-70 mm down to the dust fraction
Able to melt very wet waste even with metal contamination
Compact size (5 times smaller than a conventional furnace of the same capacity) - only 4 m2 for 80 t/day pull rate
Ability to work in "On - Off" mode - needs about 2-3 hours to start or stop this furnace
Cheaper than standard flame furnace - fully equipped SBM smelter for 80 t/day costs less than 3 MEUR
Long service life - expensive ceramic refractories are not used in this furnace
If necessary, SBM smelter can be completely disassembled and redeployed

What we supply

1. Melting bath for the melting of 3-4 tons/hour of melt. This will be an air-gas furnace with oxygen boosting;
2. Supporting frame for furnace and 4 weighing sensors;
3. Two screw batch charger with loading gate to charge the melting bath;
4. Furnace water cooling piping from inlet collector, to outlet collector;
5. Outlet device for melt exit;
6. Control Software and relevant PLC;
7. Electric panel (Low Tension) and control board with single-line diagram;
8. Four weeks for installation, supervision and training of furnace operators;
9. One time License to use all the supplied equipment;

Burners and combustion mixers will be rented for 10 years and remain property of CCI. This rental contract will include:
• Immediate substitution of burners when deteriorated;
• Minimum of one maintenance and inspection visit per year of our experts;
• Hotline support for solving possible difficulties;
• Continuous updating on the possible improvements to be made;

Optional 1 - Accessories to improve efficiency
1. Performant patented recuperator to heat up the incoming air;
2. Efficient exhaust gas extraction without expensive high temperature fan;
3. Cooling/dilution system of the exhaust gases to extend life of the exhaust channels;

Optional 2 - Feeding lines components
1. Cooling system for the furnace (dry cooler or evaporating tower) and relevant control board;
2. Compressors to supply combustion air and relevant control board;
3. Air, gas, oxygen control skid and relevant control board;
4. Melt recovery system for cullet application;
5. Melt recovery system for waterglass application;
