Abstract
The use of an integrated engineering system in the reconstruction of cast houses makes it possible to make more efficient use of blast furnaces based on several characteristics: it improves the working conditions for furnace personnel (hearth attendants) involved in tapping the smelting products; it reduces the amount of heat lost from the pig iron by maintaining its initial temperature; it reduces the amount of pig iron lost with the slag; it significantly decreases the volume of pollutants generated; it reduces penalties for polluting the environment.
