Description

With the objective to further optimize the Electric Arc Furnace process, Vallourec Star installed the ZoloSCAN Laser Off Gas Analyzer in late 2015. Being one of the most efficient EAFs in North America, the integration of the off gas sensor with the AMIGE SmartFurnace system, required precise algorithms and reliable technology in order to provide consistent results. With a design that allows virtually free maintenance and reliability, the Off Gas sensor together with teh SmartFurnace system improved the EAF efficiency. This paper focuses in the scope of the installation, and the results of the dynamic heat profiles and a closed loop chemical energy control.
