Steel Making Process with Hot Metal, Scrap and DRI

  • Electric arc furnaces are a refractory brick-lined U-shaped vertical vessel in which scrap steel, hot metal and sponge iron are melted by an electric arc. Electric Arc Furnaces (EAF) are used to produce carbon steels and alloy steels by using high-power electric arcs formed between a cathode and one (for DC) or three (for AC) anodes. An electric current is passed through the electrodes to form an arc. The heat generated by this arc melts the scrap.
    Nowadays, Scrap is by far the most important resource, accounting for about 80% of all electric arc furnace metal feedstock.

    It's seldom you see hot iron from a blast furnace being charged into an electric furnace. Thanks for sharing!

      Doxie Lain it could be. I just assumed it was from the thing as a whole moving downward, like the wires were coiling up and swaying as they did.

      That's more likely from the amount of current generated.

      Yes it's correct, beside the effects of high current, there was an adjustable control from PLC for closed loop control, to adjust the gap between solid material and grounding, the working principle is same as the electrode welding. So the current keep changing rapidly, it's make the current flow also changing rapidly

    Why is liquid steel charged to the arc furnace for the 2nd time?

    • @TFHC
      @TFHC  Před 2 lety +1

      Actually it's depends on the typical furnace, our furnace capacity is 130-140t, and the liquid steel ladle capacity is around 30-40t, but usually the actual liquid steel being poured is only 25t, because many reasons, such as drop temperature, to many slag in the ladle, etc

    • @klesstwo
      @klesstwo Před rokem +3

      The liquid steel is called a "pour back". When the ladle spends too much time on the continious casting machine at a slow speed, the steel cools down below a certain point that is too dangerous to allow for safe continious casting, or too cool to not be flowing correctly through the ladle nozzle (nozzle gets clogged). Therefore ladles are sent back to the furnace to "pourback" the remaining steel to be re used.
      This is often not a good sign, as it shows that there are operational issues in the caster (running with less casting strands for example), or because the steel was tapped at a relatively low temperature for its specified grade, or the ladle waiting time before it started casting took too long (crane issues, caster issues, treatment furnace issues, and so on)
