  ABSTRACT: Glass manufacturing is an energy-intensive process with high demands onproduct quality. The wide usage of glass products results in a high end-productdiversity. In the past, many models have been developed to optimize specific process steps,such as glass melting or glass forming. This approach presents a tool for the modeling of the entire glass manufacturing process for container glass, flat glass,and glass fibers. The tool considers detailed bottom-up energy and material balance in each step of the processing route with the corresponding costs and CO2 emissions. Subsequently, it provides the possibility to quantify optimization scenarios in the entire glass manufacturing process in terms of energy, material and cost flow efficiency.
