Electric Arc Furnace with Flat Bath

Achievements and Prospects

  • Presents the new technology of electric arc furnace operation with a flat bath
  • This analysis reveals bottle necks of the process and has allowed determining optimal ways to increase productivity and reduce electrical energy consumption as well
  • It covers a theoretical analysis of both, the limiting factors and the basic dependences of the new technology
  • Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras

Part of the book series: SpringerBriefs in Applied Sciences and Technology (BRIEFSAPPLSCIENCES)

About this book

The book contains an analysis of theoretical  dependences, bottlenecks and limiting factors of a new technology used in both Consteel and shaft furnaces operating with flat bath. Performances obtained and potentialities of these furnaces are examined. Based on this analysis, a steel melting aggregate of the new type – fuel arc furnace FAF has been developed and offered. In comparison with the best modern electric arc furnaces of identical capacity the productivity of FAF is higher by 36% and electrical energy consumption is lower by a factor of 1.8. Environment characteristics are considerably improved.
