The invention claimed is: 1. A method of combustion in a glass furnace comprising a melter, side A and side B, and regenerators on side A and side B of the furnace; said method comprising the steps of: locating a firing zone on one of side A and side B and an exhaust zone on the other of side A and
The invention claimed is: 1. A method of combustion in a glass furnace comprising a melter, side A and side B, and regenerators on side A and side B of the furnace; said method comprising the steps of: locating a firing zone on one of side A and side B and an exhaust zone on the other of side A and side B of the furnace; introducing fuel into the firing zone; introducing a first oxidant into the firing zone; introducing a second oxidant into the firing zone, said first oxidant is air and said second oxidant comprises enriched air, combusting said fuel and said first and second oxidants in said firing zone to transfer heat to the melter; flowing exhaust gases toward the exhaust zone for a time; introducing a third oxidant into the exhaust zone to complete combustion of unburned fuel within the melter; wherein during said step of introducing a first oxidant, the step of introducing a second oxidant, and the step of introducing a third oxidant occur; switching the sides of the furnace that are the firing zone and the exhaust zone; and repeating said method. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein for at least some portion of said introducing of said first oxidant step, both said introducing a second oxidant step and said introducing a third oxidant step occur. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein said first oxidant comprises air from said regenerators and provides a stoichiometric ratio between 0.2 and 1.1 in said firing zone. 4. The method of claim 3, wherein said second oxidant provides a stoichiometric ratio of between 0.05 and 0.5 in said firing zone. 5. The method of claim 3, wherein said first and second oxidants combined provide a stoichiometric ratio of from 0.45 to 1.15 in said firing zone. 6. The method of claim 3, wherein said third oxidant provides a stoichiometric ratio of from 0.05 to 0.75 in said exhaust zone. 7. The method of claim 3, wherein said first, second and third oxidants provide an overall stoichiometric ratio of from 0.9 to 1.3 in said firing and exhaust zones. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein said first oxidant provides a stoichiometric ratio of less than 1 in said firing zone. 9. The method of claim 1, wherein said first oxidant provides a stoichiometric ratio of less than or equal to 0.9 in said firing zone. 10. The method of claim 1, wherein said first oxidant provides a stoichiometric ratio of less than or equal to 0.8 in said firing zone. 11. The method of claim 1, wherein said second oxidant provides a stoichiometric ratio between 0.05 and 0.5 in said firing zone. 12. The method of claim 1, wherein said first and second oxidants combined provide a stoichiometric ratio of from 0.7 to 0.95 in said firing zone. 13. The method of claim 1, wherein said third oxidant provides a stoichiometric ratio of from 0.05 to 0.75 in said exhaust zone. 14. The method of claim 1, wherein said first, second and third oxidants provide a stoichiometric ratio of from 0.9 to 1.3 in said firing and exhaust zones. 15. The method of claim 1, wherein said first oxidant provides a stoichiometric ratio of from 0.4 to 0.9 in said firing zone, and said second oxidant provides a stoichiometric ratio of from 0.1 to 0.3 in said firing zone. 16. The method of claim 15, wherein said third oxidant provides a stoichiometric ratio of from 0.1 to 0.6 in said exhaust zone. 17. The method of claim 16, wherein said first oxidant, second oxidant and said third oxidant provide an overall stoichiometric ratio of from 0.9 to 1.1 in said firing zone and said exhaust zone. 18. The method of claim 1, wherein said first oxidant, said second oxidant and said third oxidant are independently selected from the group consisting of air, heated air, fan air, enriched air, and vent stream. 19. The method of claim 1 wherein said furnace is selected from the group consisting of a regenerative melters, unit melters, recuperative melters, hybrid air-fuel/oxy-fuel melters, and oxy-fuel fired melters. 20. The method of claim 1, wherein said step of introducing said second oxidant into the firing zone is done by injecting said second oxidant via one or more injection nozzles and wherein said step of introducing said third oxidant into the exhaust zone is done by injecting said third oxidant via one or more injection nozzles, and said second oxidant comprises vent stream. 21. The method of claim 1, further wherein said step of introducing a third oxidant occurs for three quarters or less of the time of said step of flowing exhaust gases toward the exhaust zone prior to said switching step. 22. The method of claim 21, further wherein said step of introducing a third oxidant occurs for the latter three quarters or less of the time of said step of flowing exhaust gases toward the exhaust zone prior to said switching step.
