The improvement in specific energy consumption and melting capacity achieved by the use of batch preheaters is well documented. The individual components of the complete Sorg concept - batch preheater, batch charger and doghouse - used together offer perhaps the best available opportunity to progress even further in the areas of energy consumption, NOx emission and melting rate. This article describes a major development in batch preheating from Nikolaus Sorg.
