Shortening melting and treatment time

Improved control methods can lead to shorter melting or treatment times. Some examples are closer control of the composition (e.g. C, S, P content) and the weight of the charged materials and slag forming materials [Pg.171]

Secondary metallurgy, using AOD/VODC treatment, shortens EAF time and has a positive impact on energy conservation. The technique is discussed further in Section 4.5.7.1. [Pg.171]

Increased furnace efficiency through shorter melting times and reduced downtime. [Pg.171]

Increase the efficiency of the melting and treatment operation Example plants [Pg.172]

This technique finds widespread application in European foundries using EAF melting. [Pg.172]
