Abstract
A method for manufacturing a glass ingot includes preparing a supply system including a gasifier that gasifies a raw material compound and a burner that combusts the gasified raw material compound; adding an oxygen-containing gas to the raw material compound at a plurality of addition places including an upstream addition place located in the gasifier or on an upstream side of the gasifier and a downstream addition place located on a downstream side of the gasifier in which locations of the raw material compound in a flow direction are different in the supply system so as to form a raw material mixture; and adding the oxygen-containing gas at the upstream addition place so that a concentration of oxygen or a concentration of the raw material compound in the raw material mixture is not in a combustible range of the raw material mixture.
