Process control and emissions monitoring in a glass manufacturing plant is a challenge due to high temperature in the flue gas. The OPSIS DOAS system provides the glass industry with an accurate analyser that will operate with a minimum of maintenance. The OPSIS DOAS system is based on a non-contact method that uses an optical path to measure across the duct. A single OPSIS system will measure all relevant gas componensts such as NOX, SO2, CO, CO2, H2O, O2, and others.

The area of PET bottle recycling is characterised by very high wear and tear on the machines. Frequent blade changes, high energy costs, poor accessibility and thus long downtimes – these are the substantial problems with which recycling firms struggle to increase the cost effectiveness of their systems. With the CentriCut from Nuga Systems these problems are a thing of the past. Optimal access is guaranteed thanks to the very compact design of the CentriCut. Energy costs are 50% lower due to the innovative operating principle. The special carbide cutting inserts guarantee long blade life and in addition a very quick blade change. This reduces the CentriCut downtime above the average and increases the system integrity of the entire system.

This application package is a `ready to go` calibration kit for xrf instruments. In the glass industry, raw materials have to be analysed together with the quality control samples from production. FLUXANA has created two basic programs Raw Materials (CS-0022) and Glass (CS-0016) for these two purposes, which can be individually adapted by the customer. FLUXANA application packages include always the sample preparation method. All packages are running in our application laboratory. You are always free to send your samples for testing free of charge. If you combine our application packages with our sample preparation machines FLUXANA garanties the analytical performance of the package like a contract.

End of life TV sets and computer monitors require to be recycled to maximise the level of material recovery, and to meet the requirements of the EU WEEE Directive. CRT glass is the largest item by weight. However, because of the 2 different types of glass used in CRT manufacture, the glass fractions have to be sorted to achieve a separation of the 2 type of glass, i.e. panel glass sorted from funnel glass. X-TRACT separator is able to sort the panel glass from the funnel glass. It does it by comparing their different atomic densities, and analysing the data from the X-Rays using a bi-chromatic sensor system. X-TRACT is the first industrial application for any dry mechanical density sorting.

Manufacturing TFT/LCD displays requires waste gas treatment as well. Processes that produce large scale Thinfilm Transistors (TFT) on glass substrates, for instance, use Chemical Vapour Deposition – CVD – to separate the thin films onto the material. The process requires cleaning the process chamber periodically and usually employs etching with NF3. Etching of the separated thin films typically utilises CF4, SF6 and chlorinated gases, which release large amounts of waste gas mixtures.
