Air Products supported a pioneering large-scale hydrogen test at Saint-Gobain (Germany).
Saint-Gobain successfully conducted a large-scale trial at its flat glass production plant in Herzogenrath to test how hydrogen can be used as a fuel for the glass furnace instead of natural gas. Thirty percent of the total energy consumed by the furnace was replaced by pure hydrogen/air combustion. Air Products supplied the necessary hydrogen and provided the corresponding gas supply from the trailer to the plant.
