Key Technology Research on Energy-Conserving Float Glass, a project with support from National Key Technologies R&D Program, passed the acceptance test by experts from China National Building Material Group in Beijing.

The float glass project is one of the subjects under the major project of Key Technology and Equipment of Green Manufacturing during the 11th Five-Year period. Through trail and error, the achievements of the project have been applied to many production lines of float glass, producing 12,000 tons of glass melting furnaces per day, saving 210,000 tons of coal equivalent and 580,000 tons of carbon dioxide.
