Abstract

A method of melting glass includes introducing a glass batch material (16) into a glass-melting furnace (10) containing molten glass (12), and depositing the glass batch material in a batch-depositing zone (38) on top of the molten glass contained within the furnace. Scrap fibrous glass (62) containing organic coatings is deposited on top of the glass batch material within the batch-depositing zone. The scrap fibrous glass is melted and the organic coatings volatilized. The glass batch material is then melted.
