(12B-3) GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES WILL IMPROVE WITH LOWEST COST LIQUID STEEL

摘要

When assessing the cost of producing liquid steel, one needs to review not only the cost of various metallics inputs but also the potential for maximizing the efficient use of the available metallics through peripheral process variables. This paper will discuss how an unsurpassed database of metallics chemistry and scrap market knowledge, in combination with an intimate understanding of the steelmaking process and expertise in Six Sigma evaluation, creates the ability to achieve significant savings in the cost of producing liquid steel from rapid charge mix calculations and lower scrap grade use.
