Abstract: Refractory lining material is one of the decisive factors for the safety and service life of joule-heated glass ceramic curing electric furnace. It is of practical significance to carry out research on selection of refractory lining materials and explore its key characteristics to help realize HLLW glass ceramic curing technology engineered in China. In this paper the lining materials of foreign glass curing equipment were fully investigated and the properties and main components were compared. The results show that Monofrax K-3, E chrome corundum refractory bricks, Saint-Gobain CZ and Z zirconium corundum refractory bricks are excellent candidate refractory lining materials and can be used as reference objects in the production of domestic furnace refractory lining materials. On this basis, the furnace configuration is designed and the arrangement of refractory bricks is proposed.
