Abstract
In recycling of glass wool waste, phenolic resin included in glass wool deteriorates glass quality and does the operation of a smelting furnace uncertainly. Therefore a large quantity of glass wool waste is disposed of as industrial waste. Then we have developed the glass wool waste recycling equipment using oxygen-fuel combustion. On this equipment, the glass wool is blowed into the high temperature flame, the phenolic resin is burnt rapidly. The glass part of the glass wool is hardened in the water tank, and is collected. We confirmed that the glass wool is disposed stably in this equipment. We achieved the glass collection rate 97% and Ig-loss less than 0.2%.
