IMPROVING PLANNING IN THE ROASTING OF CARBON PRODUCTS

摘要

Annular furnaces with a mobile flame zone or - in individual case - individual roasting furnaces are used to roast carbon products at electrode plants. The productivity of a multihearth roasting furnace cart be calculated from the formula M=((Tn_op)/tau)m centre dot beta, (1) where M - is the number of roasted products, tons; T - the furnace operating period, hr; n_o - the number of furnace fires; p - the number of chambers in the fire system; tau - the roasting time, hr; m - the size of the chamber charge, tons; beta-the coefficient of equipment use.
