Smoothest surface for the best material flow: Newly developed channel block qualities
Speaking of forehearths: The newly developed FOURATH® 420 zircon-mullite and Vibrorath K99 high-alumina channel blocks, which aremade of premium materials and manufactured using the most precise technology, will be on show at glasstec.

 

Longer service life with the new, advanced FOURATH®4 feeder expendables series
Also to be found at the RATH booth: the new, advanced FOURATH®4 feeder expendables series, which includes spouts, spout covers, tubes, orifice rings and plungers. FOURATH®4 technology, based on an optimized formulation that has been exclusively developed and produced by RATH, enables a longer service life, better glass quality and reduced costs.

 

Hot gas filtration: RATH helps to meet emission requirements in industrial plants

Hot gas filtration is becoming increasingly important when it comes to reducing exhaust gas emissions. At glasstec, RATH will be presenting its innovative ceramic hot gas filter elements. For many years, the company has been developing innovative ceramic hot gas filter elements that make it possible to filter particle-laden industrial flue gases at temperatures of up to 1000 °C and to reduce emissions of nitrogen and sulfur oxides, as well as fine particulates. RATH ceramic hot gas filters are produced in Europe using RATH fibers and available in lengths from 1 to 6 meters.

 

Manfred Salinger, Head of Advanced Ceramic Filtration Solutions RATH Group, and a proven expert on hot gas filtration, will share his extensive knowledge on the topic in an expert lecture at glasstec: October 23, 14:10-14:30, Hall 10.

 

 

Meet the RATH experts at glasstec Düsseldorf (October 22-25) at the RATH booth (Hall 13 E 16) and learn more about future-proof refractory solutions for the glass industry.
