EAF Quantum - First results from TYASA

摘要

In previous years, productivity was the main focus for the steel industry as the market was booming and the steel producers were output oriented. But the situation changed and the market downturn forced the industry to work on the efficiency of the equipment and the steel producers became cost oriented. Additionally, more and more countries worldwide are implementing new rules and regulations not only concerning energy efficiency and CO_2 emissions but also with respect to hazardous off gas emissions.The right approach of Primetals Technologies is the EAF Quantum. In combination with an adequate hot heel, the melting phase is reduced to pure flat bath operation with lowest flicker generation. With an optimized tapping system called FAST (furnace advanced slag free tapping system), a renewed variant of scrap charging and retaining technology, latest analyzing technologies and a revolutionary design of the offgas-treatment system, this furnace is the scrap melting technology of the future.
