This standard aims to standardize energy-saving pathways and air pollution control technologies in the glass manufacturing industry, supporting the sector’s transition to a cleaner and low-carbon production model by promoting advanced technologies such as waste heat recovery systems and electric melting furnaces as replacements for traditional gas-fired furnaces. 

The guideline outlines technical specifications for the entire energy efficiency improvement and waste gas treatment process in glass production, including critical parameters related to heat recovery and electric melting. On the management side, it specifies requirements for energy use, emission control, and data traceability within enterprises. The standard applies to a broad range of glass manufacturers, including those producing architectural, automotive, and electronic glass. Furthermore, it incorporates adaptable solutions suitable for both technologically advanced regions and resource-constrained developing countries, ensuring global applicability and practical relevance.
