Electric arc furnace eccentric furnace bottom tapping

Posted by Wangkiky Wangkiky over 6 months ago

In 1979, Germany first changed the traditional 50t ultra-high power electric arc furnace to central bottom tapping, and then changed it to more perfect eccentric bottom tapping. The biggest characteristic of eccentric furnace bottom tapping is to move the tapping hole outside the furnace shell for easy maintenance and repair. Eccentric bottom tapping matches ultra-high power, which has been developed and popularized rapidly in developed countries. Especially for large-scale slag-free electric arc furnace, its advantages are obvious, mainly as follows: (1) more than 98% slag can be retained in the molten pool. (2) the consumption of refractories can be reduced by about 25%. (3) when molten steel is tapping, the temperature of molten steel will generally drop by 25 degrees Celsius. (4) the tapping time is short, and the tapping time of 60t EAF is only about 80s. (5) the electricity consumption per ton of steel can decrease by 20kW. H. (6) the consumption of steel electrodes per ton can be reduced by about 0.5kg.[url=https://www.cambridgeironingservice.co.uk/furnace-sale/3748.html]ST 1600MX 5 Electric Heating Muffle Furnace With MoSi2 Rod[/url] (7) the life of refractory lining can reach about 250 times.[url=https://www.cambridgeironingservice.co.uk/furnace-sale/8657.html]High Temperature Electric Crucible Furnace Metal Melting Crucible Furnace[/url] The biggest drawback of the eccentric bottom tapping is the requirement that the electric arc furnace is elevated. The structure of electric arc furnace in our country is mostly pit type, and the elevated type is less. In addition, the capacity of electric arc furnace is smaller and the equipment of workshop is aging, which makes it difficult to reform. There will be a long-term process to develop and popularize eccentric bottom tapping.
