Regenerator Checker Packs
Fuel-fired furnaces in the glass industry typically utilize checker blocks to improve efficiency by taking advantage of the excellent heat exchange properties inherent in ceramic materials.
As the furnace exhausts through the check pack,the blocks are preheated by the waste gases,providing a source of energy to preheat the combustion air when the cycle is reversed.
Regenerator efficiency can be affected by a variety of factors, from pack design to regenerator size.The refractory materials utilized in regenerators must be able to withstand many different forms of attack, including corrosion by alkalis, silica and sulfates,as well as thermal shock and creep,
The selection of refractory materials is critical to the operation and life cycle of the regenerator.
Top Checkers:
This zone has an atmosphere laden with alkali vapors and solid batch carryover(CaO,SiO2).High temperature cycling and oxidizing/reducing effects are also considered.
AZS Checker blocks
Magnesia Checker blocks 98%
Magnesia Zircon blocks
Corundum Checker blocks
Middle Checkers:
This zone has temperature fluctuations that are considered relatively mild.Solid carryover is low and less reactive due to low temperature.The atmosphere is rich in alkali vapors and some deposition can occur.
Magnesia Checker blocks 95%
Magnesia Chrome Blocks
Condensate Zone
This zone had low temperatures but ranges may be wide where cold incoming air enters the checker setting. A large amount of condensation of volatile constituents is present from the exhaust gas.Plugging may occur from the entrapment of solid dust and fragments from higher up in the setting.Reducing conditions can also affect refractory selection.

Magnesia Chrome blocks(Direct bonded)
Magnesia Zircon blocks
Lower Checkers,Rider Tile and Secondaries
This zone had temperature cycling and sulphate condensate that can be an issue.In addition,creep resistance is critical in this application due to the increased load on the refractory.

Sillimanite brick
Regerator Crown/Upper Wall and Upper Division Walls
This section of the regenerator must resist solid carryover attack and is typically subjected to higher temperatures.Careful consideration of insulation being used on crowns must be taken regarding hot-face temperature and expected mean temperature of the hot face refractory.

Target Walls
Target walls experience extreme conditions from batch carryover.Issues are most severe in end-port furnaces and the first two or three ports in side-port furnaces.
Fused Mullite brick
Sintered AZS block
Sillimanite brick
Mullite brick
Magnesia Zircon brick
Magnesia brick 96
Middle Walls
This part of the regenerator is exposed to lower temperatures with relatively minor thermal cycling.The most important requirement for the refectory selection is good resistance to creep.
Magnesia brick 96
Sillimanite brick
Mullite brick
Lower Walls
Like the lower checkers, this section is exposed to temperature cycling and sulphate condensate that can be an issue.In addition,creep resistance is critical in this application due to increased load on the refractory.
