Experimental Study on an Oxygen Blast Furnace Process Using a Blast Furnace Test Plant

Multivariate process monitoring of an experimental blast furnace

Process monitoring by use of multivariate projection methods has received increasing attention as it can reduce the monitoring problem for richly instrumented industrial processes with many correlated variables. This article discusses the monitoring and control of a continuously operating experimental blast furnace (EBF). A case study outlines the need for monitoring and control of the EBF and ...

Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag

1. Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBFS) is a by product of the steel industry. Blast furnace slag is defined as “the non-metallic product consisting essentially of calcium silicates and other bases that is developed in a molten condition simultaneously with iron in a blast furnace.” [1] In the production of iron, blast furnaces are loaded with iron o...

Performance Analysis of a Blast Furnace at Bhilai Steel Plant

The present paper reports a statistical analysis of the performance of the blast furnace number X at the Bhilai Steel Plant over a period of sixteen years with the special reference to the quality and consumption of sinter . The variation in basicity and consumption of sinter, for the blast furnace data considered , is wide. The range of data covers high level to almost nil amount of raw limest...

The Study of Ion Adsorption by Amorphous Blast Furnace Slag

In this study, the blast furnace slag was used as absorbing bed and then, its ionic adsorption was studied. For this reason, various experimental parameters such as pH, contact time and the primary ion concentration were investigated. The remaining concentrations of ions such as; Mn2+ and Fe2+ in water were measured by atomic adsorption spectroscopy. The chemical and p...
