Development of a technical solution to reduce metal loss during tapping and intermediate slag skimming from a basic oxygen furnace
R&D. Development of a monitoring and control system that generates recommendations for changing the tilt angle of the converter during tapping and intermediate slag skimming. Reduction of the average amount of metal in slag pots by 2 kg/t
Problem
The control of the tapping and intermediate slag skimming process is based on the visual assessment of the steelmaker
Result
A monitoring and control system has been developed that generates recommendations for changing the tilt angle of the converter to reduce iron loss with slag
Features of the steelmaker's workstation
Monitoring
Monitoring of intermediate slag skimming, converter tilting, and final slag tapping
Detection
Detection of slag and steel in the stream, control of metal losses
Issuing recommendations
