Good design and management of the melting furnace are essential for the effectiveness, efficiency, and durability of the furnace, as well as for glass quality, energy consumption, emissions, and production costs. Stazione Sperimentale del Vetro (SSV) has accumulated extensive experience in glass production, melting processes, glass quality, and refractory materials.

SSV offers its expertise as a partner to support the company’s technical staff and furnace managers, providing services such as furnace monitoring, performance improvement, and troubleshooting. We provide on-site assistance for problems with dust, combustion, acid gas emissions, emission monitoring systems, and workplace health and safety.

Thanks to its expertise in the glass industry, SSV also operates in other sectors with high-temperature combustion processes, such as power generation, waste-to-energy, incineration, biomass boilers, steelmaking, and cement manufacturing.
