ABSTRACT:
Substantially gas free raw materials are melted to form molten glass by urging a bed of particulate materials toward a resistance heating member. The solid materials are urged into close proximity with the resistance heater and, at most, a thin film of molten glass is maintained on the heater plate. The heater plate contains one or more passages through which the molten glass flows into a heated reservoir in which the glass achieves the requisite homogeneity.
