Soheila - the USEPA website compiles current regulations and AP-42 (Emission Factors) for various sources including glass plants.  Most of the documents refer to 1974

"Development Document for Proposed Effluent Limitations Guidelines and New Source Performance Standards for the Pressed and Blown Glass Segment of the Glass Manufacturing Point Source Category" that is linked in this message. 

You could also find additional 4 documents on "Glass Industry" within EPA website. 

The EPA website will yield a number of news updates on major glass manufacturers installing technologies to mitigate emissions.  (https://www.epa.gov)

I hope it helps.  Good luck with your research.

In Europe emissions are regulated related to best available techniques (BAT) for reducing industrial emissions. These are described in documents according

to the European Directive 2010/75/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 November 2010 on industrial emissions (integrated pollution prevention and control)

About 30 BREF's (BAT Reference documents) cover a wide range of industrial processes, among them glass industry:

You may find limit values for stack emissions by looking at the specific process like melting furnaces or mineral wool production, and further to the component you are looking for like dust, NOx, SOx, HCl, HF and metals.

The limit values for different components in combination with the BAT's are listed as of Chapter 5.2, page 338.

good luck!
