Abstract
A glass transport system configured to mitigate or stop damaging glass leaks by incorporating silica-containing structural components or introducing silica-containing materials to the advancing glass leak flow to cause the molten glass to interact with silica in the silica-containing material and increase the viscosity of the molten glass sufficiently to slowdown or stop the flow of the glass leak.
