  • Global Technology Roadmap for CCS in Industry Steel Sectoral Report
    Global Technology Roadmap for CCS in Industry Steel Sectoral Report JP. Birat, ArcelorMittal Global R and D, Maizières-lès-Metz, France Steel sectoral report Contribution to the UNIDO roadmap on CCS1 - fifth draft JP. Birat, ArcelorMittal Global R and D, Maizières-lès-Metz, France Abstract What is the status of CCS today in the Steel sector as a tool for mitigation CO2 emis- sions? How mature is CCS as a solution against other approaches? What is the level of emissions to be handled, today and in the temporality of climate Change, i.e. 2050 at least? Are there gaps in the technology and barriers to its implementation in the sector? Does the level of development of a country have any incidence on the issue? These are the main questions tackled in this sectoral report for Steel. Today, CCS has not quite reached the level of being a technology in the Steel sector, as it is still a concept that needs to be fleshed out and validated at a credible scale. Open questions are related to the kind of capture that can be applied in the sector as the players speak of CCS in roadmaps but are still working out how this general con- cept can be turned into a practical technology. The main trend is to develop a sector- specific concept called "in-process" capture that can be applied to the mainstream process routes (blast furnace or direct reduction, for example) with the expected benefit of improving energy needs and productivity of equipment compared to the benchmark best practice of today.

  • History of Steel in Cleveland
    Steelmaking in Cleveland has its roots in the first iron companies that began here in the 1830s. In the next few decades, the industry flourished as Cleveland’s strategic location gave it an advantage for deliveries of iron ore by water and coal by rail. In the 1870s, Otis Iron and Steel Co.’s Lakeside Works in Cleveland became the first mill in America to produce commercial-grade steel with a new process, the basic open-hearth furnace. But it was during the 20th century that Cleveland’s steel industry really took off. In 1912, Otis Steel constructed its Riverside Works on the west side of the Cuyahoga River. From 1913 to 1916, the Corrigan-McKinney Steel Co. built two new blast furnaces on the west side of the river, adding to its two existing blast furnaces. In 1935, Corrigan-McKinney was acquired by Republic Steel Corp., and, in 1942, Jones & Laughlin Steel Corp. (J&L) bought out Otis. The new owners invested heavily in expansion, and J&L added another blast furnace named “Susan.” Today, Susan and the other west side furnaces are no longer standing. The two blast furnaces that remain in Cleveland, named C5 and C6, are on the east side of the river. The C5 furnace was built in 1942 by the Defense Plant Corp., though it was primarily operated by Republic Steel. Republic eventually bought C5, and in 1952 the company also built the C6 furnace. Employment in Cleveland’s iron and steel industry went from 374 in 1860 to more than 30,000 in the prosperity after World War II.

  • Disadvantages of Crucible Furnaces
    Subject: Manufacturing Processes Class: 3rd Mechanical Engineering Department Tikrit University Prepared by: Assistant Prof.Dr.Farouk Mansour Mahdi Lecture No.1 Week No.1 No. of hours: 2 theoretical and 1 tutorial Metal Casting Metal Casting 1- Casting Furnaces ( Melting Furnaces ) Melting furnaces used in the foundry industry are of many diverse configurations. The selection of the melting unit is one of the most important decisions foundries must make. Several important factors must be considered for proper selection, these includes: 1. The temperature required to melt the metal or alloy. 2. The melting rate and quantity of molten metal required. 3. The required quality of the melt and subsequent final product. 4. The economy of installation, operation and maintenance. 5. Environmental and waste disposal requirements. Furnaces can be classified according to the type of lining: 1- Acidic lined furnaces ( e.g. SiO2 ) 2- Basic lined furnaces ( e.g. MgO, MgCO3 , CaO) Lining materials are characterized by: 1-Refractoriness. 2-High wear resistance. 3-Low coefficient of thermal expansion. 4-High resistance to thermal shock. 5-Heat insulation. 6-passive towards molten metal, furnace gases and slag ( chemically inert). 1-1- Cupola Furnaces coke type cupola furnace Description: A cupola or cupola furnace is a melting device used in foundries to melt cast iron, some bronzes and even aluminum when attention is paid to keep the temperature low. The construction of a conventional cupola consists of a vertical steel shell which is lined with a refractory brick. The size of a cupola is expressed in diameters and can range from 0.5 to 4.0 m while the stack height is between 6 to 11 m.

  • AP-42, CH 12.13: Steel Foundries
    12.13 Steel Foundries 12.13.1 General Steel foundries produce steel castings weighing from a few ounces to over 180 megagrams (Mg) (200 tons). These castings are used in machinery, transportation, and other industries requiring parts that are strong and reliable. In 1989, 1030 million Mg (1135 million tons) of steel (carbon and alloy) were cast by U. S. steel foundries, while demand was calculated at 1332 Mg (1470 million tons). Imported steel accounts for the difference between the amount cast and the demand amount. Steel casting is done by small- and medium-size manufacturing companies. Commercial steel castings are divided into 3 classes: (1) carbon steel, (2) low-alloy steel, and (3) high-alloy steel. Different compositions and heat treatments of steel castings result in a tensile strength range of 400 to 1700 MPa (60,000 to 250,000 psi). 12.13.2 Process Description1 Steel foundries produce steel castings by melting scrap, alloying, molding, and finishing. The process flow diagram of a typical steel foundry with fugitive emission points is presented in Figure 12.13-1. The major processing operations of a typical steel foundry are raw materials handling, metal melting, mold and core production, and casting and finishing. 12.13.2.1 Raw Materials Handling - Raw material handling operations include receiving, unloading, storing, and conveying all raw materials for the foundry. Some of the raw materials used by steel foundries are iron and steel scrap, foundry returns, metal turnings, alloys, carbon additives, fluxes (limestone, soda ash, fluorspar, calcium carbide), sand, sand additives, and binders. These raw materials are received in ships, railcars, trucks, and containers, and are transferred by trucks, loaders, and conveyors to both open- pile and enclosed storage areas.

C. Price 10 cents PRODUCTION, HEAT TREATMENT, AND PROPERTIES OF IRON ALLOYS ABSTRACT This circular has been prepared in response to continuing requests made to the National Bureau of Standards for a reasonably brief and simplified statement of the principles of the heat treatment of steels, and for similarly simplified state¬ ments covering the production and properties of iron alloys in general. This circular gives particular consideration to recently developed theories of the hard¬ ening of steel and of the role of special alloying elements in steel. Page I. Introduction_ 2 II.

  • 12.5 Iron and Steel Production 12.5.1 Process Description the Production
    12.5 Iron And Steel Production 12.5.1 Process Description1-3 The production of steel at an integrated iron and steel plant is accomplished using several interrelated processes. The major operations are: (1) coke production, (2) sinter production, (3) iron production, (4) iron preparation, (5) steel production, (6) semifinished product preparation, (7) finished product preparation, (8) heat and electricity supply, and (9) handling and transport of raw, intermediate, and waste materials. The interrelation of these operations is depicted in a general flow diagram of the iron and steel industry in Figure 12.5-1. Coke production is discussed in detail in Section 12.2 of this publication, and more information on the handling and transport of materials is found in Chapter 13. 12.5.1.1 Sinter Production - The sintering process converts fine-sized raw materials, including iron ore, coke breeze, limestone, mill scale, and flue dust, into an agglomerated product, sinter, of suitable size for charging into the blast furnace. The raw materials are sometimes mixed with water to provide a cohesive matrix, and then placed on a continuous, travelling grate called the sinter strand. A burner hood, at the beginning of the sinter strand ignites the coke in the mixture, after which the combustion is self supporting and it provides sufficient heat, 1300 to 1480°C (2400 to 2700°F), to cause surface melting and agglomeration of the mix. On the underside of the sinter strand is a series of windboxes that draw combusted air down through the material bed into a common duct, leading to a gas cleaning device.
