REDUCING THE ELECTRICITY CONSUMPTION FOR
ELECTRIC ARC FURNACE
The paper presents a study of the electric arc furnace who using
Carbon-Jet and Oxygen-Jet to reduce specific consumption of energy.
Electric arc furnaces (EAF) play an important and increasing role in
modern steel work concepts. The ability to precisely control the temperature
and chemistry of the batch make EAF an ideal choice for producing high-grade
steel for the recycling of scrap. Of the steel made today 36 % is produced by
the EAF route and this share will increase to 50 by 2030.
