Abstract

Disclosed is a combustion process of a glass kiln with non-catalytic reformers. A corresponding system includes the glass kiln, the non-catalytic reformers A/B, a flue gas recovery device, a chimney, a high-temperature flue gas fan, a natural gas supply device, and an oxygen supply device. The present disclosure circulates part of flue gas of the glass kiln and increases concentrations of vapor and carbon dioxide in the circulating flue gas, the vapor and the carbon dioxide in the circulating flue gas are subjected to a conversion and reforming reaction with natural gas in the non-catalytic reformers for recycling sensible heat of the high-temperature flue gas and meanwhile generating high-calorific-value water gas at 1300° C. or above, thereby increasing a gross calorific value and a temperature of gas entering the glass kiln, and the high-calorific-value water gas, less unreacted natural gas, and oxygen are sufficiently combusted in the glass kiln.
