About this project

The description is as the source gives it.

TOYO GLASS CO., LTD. will introduce Japan's first oxygen combustion method to a large glass melting furnace (>200 tons/day capacity) at its Chiba Plant during major repairs scheduled for December 2025. This process change is expected to reduce GHG emissions per furnace by ~20%. Evidence: "TOYO GLASS CO., LTD. will change the combustion method from air combustion to oxygen combustion when it undergoes major repairs on one of its glass melting furnaces at its Chiba Plant, scheduled for December 2025. ... expected to reduce GHG emissions per furnace by approximately 20%." — https://www.tskg-hd.com/en/sustainability/environment/decarbonization/
