Abstract:
The article discusses an improved automatic electrodes movement control system for electric arc furnaces (arc steel-making furnaces and ladle-furnace installations), which improves the dynamic parameters of the quality of secondary electrical circuit impedance (s) control due to the use of a new structure of a nonlinear adaptive impedance controller. The use of an improved control system stabilizes the metal charge melting process in arc steel-making furnaces as well as the liquid steel heating process in ladle-furnace installations with intensive bottom blowing. This allows for the technical effect of reduced operating time under current and reduced specific power consumption in electric arc furnaces. The non-linear adaptive impedance controller provides full linearization of control loops, including a proportional directional control valve (servo valve) with a non-linear control characteristic and a secondary electrical circuit with a non-linear dependence of impedance on the arc length. The research used a complex mathematical model of the electric circuit of an electric arc furnace, hydraulic drives for moving electrodes and an automatic control system for moving electrodes, implemented in the MATLAB Simulink mathematical package. The effectiveness of the improved control system in the conditions of the existing metallurgical production was evaluated against the example of the “RADUGA NPA PK” control system, developed at the Federal State Budgetary Educational Institution of Higher Education “MSTU im. Nosov” and a ladle-furnace operating at the installation in the electric steel-smelting shop of PJSC “Magnitogorsk Metallurgical Plant”. The developed improved control system can be used in other modern electric arc furnaces of various capacities operating at metallurgical enterprises in Russia and abroad.

Abstract:
The paper presents the experimental researches regarding the air pollution with sulfur dioxide (SO2) to the steelmaking in the electric arc furnace. It presents a method for determining the sulfur dioxide (SO2) concentrations from the steelmaking, the diagram variation of the sulfur dioxide (SO2) concentrations over time during specific technological stages of the steelmaking process and the potential sources that generate the sulfur dioxide (SO2) to steelmaking process in the electric arc furnaces. The air pollution during steelmaking in electric arc furnaces is manifested throughout this process, which includes the following technological stages: furnace charging, charge melting, refining, dephosphorization, desulphurization, deoxidizing, alloying and evacuation. Considering the stages of steelmaking in the electric arc furnace that have the potential to generate sulfur dioxide (SO2), it was assessed its generation evolution for the following technological stages: melting, refining, desulphurization and deoxidizing. The experimental researches were performed on two electric arc furnaces with a capacity of 10 and 30 tons. The highest concentrations of sulfur dioxide (SO2) were recorded during the desulfurization technological stage. After this stage, it has been recorded a significant reduction in sulfur dioxide (SO2) concentrations. The sulfur dioxide (SO2) concentrations from the electric arc furnace with the capacity of 30 tons are higher than those recorded in the furnace of 10 tons with 30-40%.

Abstract:
Due to high unit capacities, electric arc furnaces are among the receivers that significantly affect the power system from which they are supplied. Arc furnaces generate a number of disturbances to the power grid, including fast-changing voltage fluctuations causing the phenomenon of flickering light, asymmetry, and deformation of the voltage curve. The main issues discussed in the article are problems related to the distortion of current and voltage waveforms, resulting from the operation of electric arc furnaces. An analysis of the indices characterizing the voltage distortion recorded in the supply network of the arc furnaces is presented. The changes in the range of current and voltage waveform deformation in individual smelting phases in the arc furnace are also presented. Furthermore, the changes in the degree of deformation of the current and voltage waveforms in the individual smelting phases in an arc furnace are presented. A multi-voltage electric arc model used in computer simulations is proposed.

Abstract:
Arc furnaces, due to their high unit power and load nature, belong to the receivers affecting the power quality. A dynamically changing electric arc is the main source of disturbances generated by arc devices. This current article presents the results of model tests of disturbances caused by arc furnaces. It also presents the attempts to estimate the power supply conditions for arc furnaces, so that they do not generate unacceptable disturbances to the power system. Various models of the electric arc are proposed. The values of the elements making up the furnace supply system were based on actual parameters. In these networks, measurements of electricity quality indicators were carried out, which allowed us to refer to the obtained results of model tests with the real values. Accordingly, to the real conditions, the values of the short-circuit power of the network and the power of furnace transformers were also adopted in the tests.

Abstract:
ObjectivesThe aim of the study is to increase the energy efficiency of an arc furnace’s power supply system and low-voltage circuit. According to the aim of the research, the relevant tasks of determining the capacitor capacity for reactive power compensation and selecting a rational location for its installation are posed.MethodsWithin the framework of the previously developed concept of changing the parameters of the switching transformer in the series compensation circuit, issues of efficient use and consumption of electrical energy by a high power linear load under sinusoidal mode are considered. The installation of static compensators using a direct compensation method with automatic control including 12 stages of regulation is proposed as a means of increasing the efficiency of the arc furnace. Challenges involved in increasing the efficiency of electric power supply to alternating current arc furnaces using compensating reactive power in a low-voltage circuit are considered.ResultsThe viability of using the series compensation circuit of reactive power with the switching of capacitors in the winding of the higher voltage of the series switching transformer is demonstrated.ConclusionIt is shown that for efficient use and consumption of electric energy by highpower linear load under sinusoidal conditions, it is advisable to apply the series compensation of reactive power with the switching of capacitors in the winding of the higher voltage of the series switching transformer. This makes it possible to increase the efficiency coefficient of electric arc furnace power supply devices by reducing the power losses in the power supply system and in the furnace lowvoltage circuit by 1.6 times, as well as reducing the total load in the power transformer by 1.36 times.

Abstract:
A computerized Fast Fourier Transform system has been used to analyse vibration measurements sampled from a 100-ton electric arc furnace. It has been the hypothesis that patterns in the vibration data would correlate to specific events in the electric arc furnace during the melting process. The theory was that the vibration patterns would be most powerful in multiples of 50 Hz, as the electric arcs operate with a frequency of 50 Hz. It was concluded that the multiples of 50 Hz were dominant. Investigation was made regarding how the amount of scrap affects the amplitude in the vibrations after a defined amount of energy input. It was confirmed that the intensity of the vibrations decreased with increasing mass and basket volume. Another discovery was the M-shaped pattern at the beginning of the melting process. This pattern was statistically analysed. It was found that 71 % of the 41 charges showed an M-shaped correlation. The appearance of this M-shape was analysed regarding power usage, and steel-type. It was concluded that the steel type affected the appearance of the M-shape. The occurrence of flat-bath was also investigated. The theory was that the vibration data would be fairly constant with the occurrence of flat-bath. It was discovered that the vibration data experienced a somewhat constant behaviour towards the end of the melting process in approximately 57 % of the 41 charges. Difficulties were encountered regarding detection of patterns, and correlating them to specific conditions, due to the many parameters that affect the vibration measurements from charge to charge. It was concluded that vibration analysis are unlikely to be used as an absolute way to foresee every event in the electric arc furnace during each charge. But can rather serve as a statistical tool, upon which decisions of how the melting process should be conducted could be based on.

A fundamental study of the Direct Current Electric Arc Furnace (DC-EAF) for steel-making has been carried out through the development of a rigorous mathematical model. The mathematical representation involves the simultaneous solution of Maxwell's equations for the electromagnetic fields, and the turbulent fluid flow and heat transfer equations. In solving the arc and bath regions it was assumed ( and justified) that the arc-bath interactions are dominated by the behavior of the arc. In contrast to previous modeling investigations, this work relaxes some critical assumptions and provides a more realistic and comprehensive representation of the system. This work also examines and compares the relative merits of alternative electromagnetic and turbulence formulations, and addresses the role of induced currents and compressibility effects in the representation of the arc. Furthermore, due allowance was made to represent and analyze the effect of gas injection, the presence of a slag layer in the bath and changes in anode configuration at the bottom of the reactor. Because of a lack of experimental information on actual or pilot plant DC-EAF systems, different aspects of the model were validated using several sources of experimental data reported in the literature for related systems. These included measurements on welding arcs, laboratory scale high-intensity carbon arcs, electromagnetically driven metallic systems, and ladle metallurgy physical models. It was found that, in general, the agreement between measurements and predictions was good. A detailed analysis was carried out to examine the effect of process parameters (e.g., arc current, arc length, bath dimensions, anode arrangements, etc) on the behavior of the furnace (e.g., heat transfer to the bath, heating efficiency, mixing times in the bath, etc). Predictions from the arc model show that all the arc characteristics are strongly coupled and that the arc physics is governed by the expansion of the arc. From a parametric study it was found that when the arc region (defined by the 10,000 K isotherm) is plotted in dimensionless form, a universal shape for the arc can be defined, regardless of the values of arc current or arc length. This universality was restricted to the range of conditions analyzed in this thesis, to arcs struck between graphite cathodes in air, and does not include the jet impingement region on the bath surface. This common arc expansion behavior suggested the universal nature of other arc characteristics. Universal maps of temperature, magnetic: flux density, and axial velocity are also reported in terms of simple analytical expressions. The practical effects of the two main process parameters of the arc region,. i.e. the arc current and the arc length, were analyzed. It was found that increasing the arc length significantly increases the arc resistance and, consequently, the arc power, although this behavior reached asymptotic values at larger arc lengths. Increasing the arc current, however, does not affect the arc voltage. Thus, it is found that increasing the arc power increases the amount of energy transferred into the bath, but the heat transfer efficiency decreases. Therefore, the shorter the arc the more efficient is the heat transfer to the bath. It is also recognized that heat transfer from the arc to the bath is controlled by convection, although radiation can become an important mechanism, especially for large arc lengths. Results of the bath model indicate that, in the absence of inert gas stirring and with no slag present in the system, electromagnetic body forces dominate and are responsible for the fluid flow patterns in the system. The effects of the arc determine the distributions of temperature and other mixing characteristics in the bath. The bath model was used to evaluate the effect of the main process parameters and design variables on mixing, refractory wear, temperature stratification, and heat transfer efficiency. An increase in the arc length is detrimental to mixing but increases the rate of heating in the melt as a result of the increased arc power. Increasing arc current improves mixing and the heat transferred to the bath, but is likely to be detrimental to the life of the bottom refractory. The results also suggest that high furnace aspect ratios (taller and thinner arc furnaces) are highly recommended because an increase in the aspect ratio increases mixing, prevents refractory wear, and promotes arc heating efficiency. The arc configuration in the furnace can be changed to control fluid flow patterns in the bath to meet specific needs, such as better mixing, or to prevent refractory wear. The presence of a top layer of slag reduces mixing and increases overall liquid temperatures. Injection of gases through the bottom in eccentric operations generates complex flow patterns that improve mixing in regions away from the symmetry axis. It is the author's belief that this model is a useful tool for process analysis in the DC-EAF. It has the capability to address many issues of current and future concern and represents one component of a fundamental approach to the optimization of DC-EAF operations.

Abstract:
Along with the essential importance of the metallurgical sector, one must recognise that it is also one of the largest sources of environmental pollution. In particular, the problem of electric arc furnace (EAF) dusts is of a growing concern due to the increase in popularity of EAF steelmaking. This dust is classified as a hazardous product due to the elevated content of toxic metals (e.g., Cr).
Studies on the properties of EAF dusts are sparse. Experiments were performed in order to determine the chemical and physical characteristics of the dust. It was determined that EAF dust is constituted of randomly distributed agglomerations of homogeneously nucleated particles and entrained particles. The main elements present within the particular dust were iron and chromium, the latter due to the fact that the dust used was formed within a stainless steel mini-mill. The main phases present within the dust were Fe2O3/Fe 3O4 and Cr2O3.
Thermal remediation experiments were then carried out in a computer controlled thermogravimetric system. The parameters studied during the tests included temperature, residence time and heating rate. In addition, the behaviour of the EAF dust during remediation was studied; in terms of weight and volume loss, gas evolution, particle morphology and resulting leachability of the treated product. Furthermore, it was observed that at temperatures greater than 1200°C metal leachability decreased significantly due to a decrease in toxic metal concentration within the treated product and the formation of a resistant, dense, plate-like morphology. At 1600°C, no toxic metals leached out of the remediated EAF dust and volume reduction was significant, resulting in a product that would be safe and more economical to landfill.

PONTIFÍCIA UNIVERSIDADE CATÓLICA DO RIO DE JANEIRO
A metalurgia é a ciência que estuda os diversos meios para a transformação dos metais em materiais úteis à sociedade. A metalurgia do ferro representa a maior fatia da aplicação dos metais. Por ser tão representativa é chamada de Siderurgia. Dentre as diversas rotas para a transformação do ferro em aço, as usinas semi-integradas apresentam um forte apelo ecológico, pois utilizam a sucata, oriunda da reciclagem de ferro, e o ferro gusa como matérias-primas para a fusão no Forno Elétrico a Arco. Naturalmente, em todo processo industrial há a geração de resíduos e, neste caso, o principal é a escória, composta de óxidos formados e adicionados ao longo da fusão. Seus principais constituintes são: CaO, SiO2, FeO, MnO, MgO, Al2O3 e P2O5. No entanto, ainda há a presença de Ferro Metálico, um fato indesejável, pois atua negativamente no rendimento metálico e, consequentemente, aumenta o custo do aço. Toda escória gerada é beneficiada com o intuito de recuperar a parte metálica. Este material beneficiado retorna para as usinas como sucata metálica, contendo teores definidos de ferro metálico. O teor de ferro presente na sucata recuperada é avaliado pelas empresas processadoras de escória de maneira indireta por um ensaio de densidade específica. Havia dúvidas se a sucata recuperada da escória do forno apresentava teores de ferro que justificasse seu emprego como matéria-prima ferrosa. Assim sendo, foi proposta uma rota de processamento capaz de mensurar o teor de ferro presente e permitir a comparação com os teores obtidos com o ensaio de densidade. Os resultados mostram que i) é possível calcular o impacto no rendimento, ii) que as sucatas recuperadas apresentam valores inferiores ao esperado, iii) que a equação de densidade superestima o teor de ferro e iv) que modificações propostas nos coeficientes da equação vigente melhoram seu grau de assertividade. Estes resultados foram comprovados em 3 plantas siderúrgicas.
Metallurgy is the science that studies the various processes for the transformation of metals into society useful materials. The iron metallurgy represents the largest body of the metals application, hence it is called Steel industry. Among the various routes for the transformation of iron into steel, semiintegrated plants have a strong ecological appeal due to their extensive use of scrap, derived from the recycling of iron, and pig iron as raw materials for the Electric Arc Furnace. Of course, industrial processes generate waste. The major waste of the Electric Arc Furnace is the slag, a mixture of oxides produced during the process, containing CaO, SiO2, FeO, MnO, MgO, Al2O3 e P2O5. However, there is also the presence of metallic iron, a fact undesirable, because it acts negatively on the metallic yield and therefore increases the cost of steel. All slag generated is processed in order to recover the metallic iron. The slag beneficiation returns to the mills a material containing defined levels of iron. The content of recovered iron is assessed by slag processing companies indirectly by a specific gravity test. There have been doubts whether the recovered scrap iron content justify its use as raw ferrous materials. Therefore, it is proposed a processing route capable of measuring the amount of iron present in the recovered scrap. The measured iron content is also compared with the levels obtained from the test density. The results show that i) it is possible to calculate the impact on iron yield, ii) the recovered iron content is lower than expected, iii) the density equation overestimates the amount of iron and iv) a correction is proposed to improve the assertiveness of the density equation. Three steel plants confirmed the results from this research.

Abstract:
Chemical energy plays a big role in the process of modern Electric Arc Furnace (EAF). The objective of this study is to compare the results of chemical reaction enthalpies calculated by four different methods. In general, the “PERRY-NIST-JANAF method” is used to calculate the chemical energies. However, this method heavily depend on heat capacities of the substances which have to be deduced from  “Perry’s Chemical Engineers’ Handbook” and “NIST-JANAF Thermochemical Tables”, even the calculation process is complicated. Then, some other methods are introduced: Total enthalpy method, HT (High Temperature) enthalpy method and Atomic energy method. In this thesis, the above four methods have been used to calculate the enthalpies of chemical reactions in EAF process. Both of “Total enthalpy method” and “HT enthalpy method” are not complicated, but some basic data are not available. The calculation for chemical reaction enthalpies cannot be completely made by these two methods. “Atomic energy method” is more complicated than “Total enthalpy method” and “HT enthalpy method”, even almost all data are available, but some results of these methods are far from those of the other three methods’. The results show that values of enthalpies obtained by “PERRY-NIST-JANAF method” are more reasonable, though the calculation process is more complicated. In this study, it is also discussed two influencing factors on EAF process: electric power and electromagnetic stirring (EMS).

This thesis centers around an electric arc furnace (EAF) at a steel mini-mill in Wilton, IA. First, the thesis replicates previous optimization attempts. Next, the modeling is greatly altered to produce a much improved steel-melting model. Then, a new optimal control system is created and used to reduce energy and fuel costs over the melting process. Finally, results are presented. This thesis shows that when the new optimal control is simulated, the system shows significant energy and fuel savings.

Abstract:
In this paper, energy and exergy analysis of an existing steel electric arc furnace (EAF) was performed to estimate the furnace potential for increasing the efficiency and decreasing the electrical energy consumption. The results of analysis show that the energy and exergy efficiencies of the furnace are 56.9% and 40.5%, respectively. Field data show that mass flow rate of hot flue gas is around 10.4 kg/s in average which contains 18.3% and 12.2% of total input energy and exergy, respectively. By using energy of flue gas for preheating the sponge iron, electrical energy consumption of the furnace could be reduced up to 88 GJ which means 21.2% reduction in electrical energy consumption and 13.6% increase in steel production. Also, exergy efficiency improves about 10.8% by using preheating scheme.

Abstract:
Electric arc furnaces are used to make steel from scrap iron in steel industry. Nowadays, the aim of more researches in this area is to increase yield of furnace and it’s compatibility with environment. One of the methods to achieve these purposes is to control the off-gas system as relative pressure in furnace would be kept negative. Because the combustion gases inside the furnace must not leak into the plant environment. However for preventing of loss of energy, the amount of this negative number must be small. In this paper, new intelligent control method named fuzzy emotional control, applied to off-gas system to control the relative pressure in the furnace and its result is compared to other methods.
