[origin: WO2021035209A1] Methods have been developed to produce amorphous silica materials including, but not limited to, glass, container glass, fiber glass, glass bead, sheet or plate glass, glass aggregate, glass sand, abrasives, proppants, foamed glass, and manufactured glass articles. The initial processing steps include preparing a melt batch comprising at least one silica containing component and other processing or product enhancing components, melting the melt batch, and cooling the melted melt batch. The batches include high concentrations of metal oxides, slags, combustible materials, limestone, other product or process enhancing compounds and combinations thereof.
