Most of the EAF dedusting systems installed worldwide have been designed and built with the mere intention to comply with certain environmental regulations and limiting values for a determined process and production capacity - and this usually works as long as those variables are fixed. But reality shows that - ever since the recent financial crisis - steel producers are perpetually forced to adapt their steelmaking process in order to meet the requirements of the market and properly react to its fluctuations (e.g. by flexible use of input materials). Many installed dedusting systems cannot live up to this challenge. Badische Stahl-Engineering GmbH (BSE) optimizes dedusting systems to meet various process requirements and thus increase the overall productivity and cost efficiency - along with the strict compliance with all environmental standards and local legislations. This paper further describes the basic considerations to be taken and the BSE approach to deal with these challenges, emphasizing it by examples of our latest projects world wide.
