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.

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.

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.

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:
The choice of a rational electrical mode of existing or newly commissioned electric arc furnaces (EAFs) is a very difficult task for process engineers in view of the influence of external disturbing factors. Based on an electric arc heat-transfer model (EAHTM), a method is proposed, using which the problem of determining the optimal electrical operation mode can be solved with the minimal number of simplifications and assumptions, and with taking into account the specific features of a particular EAF. In solving the problem, the following factors are taken into account: the arc heat transfer conditions in the melting space; the influence of the thermal operation conditions of the electrodes and the arc length on the structure of heat fluxes during the heating by arcs, and the effect the chemical composition of the working medium has on the thermophysical properties of the arc column plasma. The radiation from EAF arcs with taking into account the column temperature profile is calculated using the method of universal arc characteristics based on the solution of a system of nonlinear algebraic equations of the EAHTM column cylindrical model. The arc length calculation is based on the EAHTM structural characteristics method and consists of comparing the arc voltage value calculated using the furnace equivalent circuit equation and the arc voltage calculated using the EAHTM. Knowing the arc length, it is possible to calculate the arc radiation power in the EAF melting space. The choice of an electrical operation mode implies specifying an electrical parameter to be maintained by the controller for a certain period of melting. The value of this parameter (arc current or the EAF phase loop impedance) governs the other electrical parameters of the electric furnace installation, such as arc power, electrical losses, power factors, efficiency, etc. In addition, the correct choice of the electrical operation mode has an influence on other important operational characteristics, such as the specific consumption of electrodes, the duration of the interval between repairs, etc.

Abstract:
The structure of the complex process of heating with an electric arc in an arc steelmaking furnace (ASF) due to radiation and convection depends primarily on the length of the arc. Identification of arc length required in process of melting control in ASF is impossible without knowledge of arc voltage gradient values. The arc voltage gradient is highly dependent on the temperature of the furnace and thereby on the heat exchange conditions of the arc in the melting space of the furnace during melting. Using the example of ASF, an engineering technique for determining the arc voltage gradient as a multifactorial basic electrical characteristic is proposed. Using the methods of the electric arc heat exchange model allows performing a basic two-factor version of the analytical calculation of the average voltage gradient of the arc column as a function of two parameters - the reactance of the furnace and the secondary voltage of the furnace transformer. Correction of the basic function is shown taking into account the value of the resistance of the equivalent ASF circuit and the electrode thermal mode index. The proposed method allows, already at the stage of development of the detailed design specification, to calculate analytically the most important energy physical characteristics of the ASF and, as a result, to choose a rational electrical mode of the ASF in order to improve energy and dynamic smelting indicators.

Recently, the proportion of electric furnace steelmaking has increased rapidly, and the content of electric arc furnace dust has increased. Through comprehensive recovery of electric arc furnace dust, the harm of metallurgical solid waste can be reduced and economic value can be created. In this paper, it gives a common outline about the known recycling techniques from electric arc furnace dusts and presents the carbothermal reduction under vacuum. The evolution in reduction products in the process of vacuum carbothermal reduction of zinc-containing electric arc furnace dust is studied using the X-ray diffraction (XRD) phase and micro-morphology analysis. The thermodynamic conditions for reduction are computed using Factsage 7.1 program. Through thermodynamic study, it is found that the initial temperature of reducing zinc oxide decreases as the pressure of the system drops. In the process of the vacuum carbothermal reduction experiment, the type of reducing agent, reduction temperature, carbon content, and reaction time are studied. According to the test results, the optimum process parameters are determined as follows: reduction time 30 min, reduction temperature 1273 K. The dezincification effect of electric arc furnace dust can reach over 99%.

Abstract:
AbstractOperation of the electric arc furnaces (EAFs) is a subject to consider fluctuations in terms of its key performance indicators, such as the electrical energy consumption (EEC), tap-to-tap time, steel yield, and others. In this paper, a more detailed analysis of the electric arc furnace data is performed, investigating its EEC. It is well known that the EEC is affected by the weight and the type of charged scrap, the operational delays, and the tapping temperature. On the other hand, one can also deduce that the feeds, such as the carbon and the oxygen, could also affect the EEC, due to their role in redox equations and impact to the bath energy balance. Therefore, special attention is devoted to the analysis of the carbon-to-oxygen ratio during the electric arc furnace operation and the consequent influence of the oxygen availability on the EEC. Statistical analysis of more than 2500 heats of data, which were clustered according to the produced steel grade and the charged scrap mixture, has revealed that besides the beforementioned factors, fluctuations in EEC could appear also due to different amounts of added carbon and oxygen. Since the furnace operators usually rely on predefined guidelines and their own experience when actuating the furnace, a simplistic statistical approach can be used to reveal some of the weaknesses in the control routines, which can be used as a starting point to improve their actuation, leading to decreased energy consumption.

Abstract:
The modern direction of improving the technology of steel production in high-power arc furnaces is the intensification of magnetohydrodynamic effects for mixing the melt. In this article, a furnace design is proposed that contains three roof arc and three bottom electrodes, which provides the formation of additional eddy currents in the melt when the furnace is supplied with direct current or a low-frequency current. For a numerical study of the features of heat transfer in the melt of this furnace, a three-dimensional mathematical model of magnetohydrodynamic and thermal processes was used. The results were processed using the methods of visualization of vortex structures and the Richardson criterion. In an oven with a capacity of 180 tons at currents in the electrodes of 80 kA, the conditions for the interaction of electric vortex and thermogravitational convection were studied. Results showed that thermogravitational convection due to nonuniform heating of the melt led to a decrease in the size of the main electric vortex flow and the formation of an additional flow near the side walls of the furnace. The features of azimuthal flows formed in the areas of electric arcs and hearth electrodes were analyzed. Results showed that the multivortex structure of the flows that formed in the furnace allowed the volume of stagnant zones to be reduced and provided acceptable melt mixing conditions. The results can be used to improve the energy and structural parameters of three-electrode arc furnaces.

The considerations were based on the model of the arc device in which the electric arc was replaced with a voltage source with an amplitude dependent on the length of the arc. In the case of voltage fluctuations, such a model gives an assessment of the arc device’s behavior closer to reality than the model used, based on replacing the arc with resistance. An example of the application of the kp and kq coefficients in a practical solution is presented.

Abstract:
Electric arc furnace slag (EAFS) and electric arc furnace dust (EAFD) are the waste materials from the steel production by EAF route which implies remelting of iron and steel scrap in electric arc furnaces (EAF). In recent years, special attention is paid on the valorisation of EAFS and EAFD since disposing the both may cause negative impacts on the environment. In this paper, the methods that are in use to process EAFS and EAFD have been reviewed, and their advantages and disadvantages are also addressed. Literature data indicates that EAFS can be successfully valorised in civil engineering, wastewaters treatments and as a soil nutrient in agriculture, while the presence of valuable elements in EAFD is motivational factors for the recycling of EAFD. Moreover, valorisation of EAFD through vitrification and stabilization/solidification processes is also widely discussed.

Abstract:
The current study deals with optimizing the melting process used in electric arc furnace by heat balance equations. Heat balance is a very important aspect in an arc furnace in which the energy input consists of electrical energy [65%], chemical energy [25%] and exothermic reaction heat [10%]. This energy is optimized with the charge mix, charge quantity, fluxes, fuel used, and O2 used in the burners. The present model considers all these aspects and gives heat distribution in the process. The model spreadsheet gives a reasonable prediction in terms of metal yield, composition, and energy consumption. The model also predicts the amount of iron oxidized in the process. The mass and heat balance model is a useful tool for process analysis and improves the process efficiency of electric arc furnace steelmaking.

Abstract:
For estimation of ferroalloy-producing electric arc furnace operation efficiency an energy and technology criteria proposed. Its physical meaning is as follows: it determines a share of energy from the current source, in particular its useful part, spent by ore reduction carbon-thermal process of a ferroalloy production (ferrosilicum, ferrochrome, ferromanganeese), taking into account heat losses and degree of extraction of the leading element into the alloy.Results of an analysis of ferroalloys smelting parameters in electric arc furnaces via carbon-thermal process by example of smelting FeSi using energy and technology criteria of ferroalloys furnace operation presented. It was shown, that while increasing values of energy and technology criteria, the specific consumption of electric power per one basic tonne of the alloy is reducing. For mid power electric furnaces that melted 75% FeSi, the energy and technology criteria of ferroalloys furnace operation corresponds to a range from 0.300 to 0.314. At the same time, the specific electric power consumption is from 9.0 to 8.6 MW∙h/t of the alloy. A satisfactory, but less efficient version of the furnace operation is the range of energy and technology criteria from 0.272 to 0.293 and specific electricity consumption of electric power varies from 9.8 to 9.2 MW∙h/t of alloy. Such a complex value can be considered as the main element of the energy and technological audit of the ferroalloy furnace facility, as well as to identify effective operating modes, analysis of usage of various types of charge materials (ore raw materials, carbonaceous reductants) and the application of innovative melting technologies.

Abstract:
The actual problem of mineral resources depletion in ferrous metallurgy can be effectively solved by complex reuse of technogenic waste. That waste is mostly presented by EAF (electric arc furnace) slag and LF (ladle furnace) slag. These two kinds of slag have no complex full utilization. The residues of slag are going to the dump and then the slag dump locations pollute the environment. However, the residues of EAF and LF slag can be transformed into the valuable industrial product by interaction of the slag components. This work presents the research for joint wasteless processing of EAF and LF slag with production of Portland clinker and cast iron.

Abstract:
The technological units of electric arc steel remelting are among the most energy-intensive consumers for whom the problem of energy saving is extremely urgent. The proposed reconstruction of the electric-arc steel furnace is aimed at reducing the amount of electricity consumption. The feasibility study makes it possible to assess the technical and economic parameters of project of an electric-arc steel furnace reconstruction. The simulation results of the reconstructed electric furnace showed that due to the optimal placement of electric arcs in the electric furnace space, the duration of the metal melting stage can be reduced by approximately 19 min. Cost-effectiveness calculations for the implementation of the innovative solution showed that reducing the duration of steel remelting in a reconstructed furnace reduces the electricity consumption by approximately 28% per process. The article takes into account only the reduction of electricity consumption, but does not take into account the possibility of improving the productivity of the furnace by increasing the number of technological processes per shift.

Abstract:
PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to present a 3D finite element model of the electromagnetic fields in an AC three‐phase electric arc furnace (EAF). The model includes the electrodes, arcs, and molten bath.Design/methodology/approachThe electromagnetic field in terms of time in AC arc is also modeled, utilizing a 3D finite element method (3D FEM). The arc is supposed to be an electro‐thermal unit with electrical power as input and thermal power as output. The average Joule power, calculated during the transient electromagnetic analysis of the AC arc furnace, can be used as a thermal source for the thermal analysis of the inner part of furnace. Then, by attention to different mechanisms of heat transfer in the furnace (convection and radiation from arc to bath, radiation from arc to the inner part of furnace and radiation from the bath to the sidewall and roof panel of the furnace), the temperature distribution in different parts of the furnace is calculated. The thermal model consists of the roof and sidewall panels, electrodes, bath, refractory, and arc. The thermal problem is solved in the steady state for the furnace without slag and with different depths of slag.FindingsCurrent density, voltage and magnetic field intensity in the arcs, molten bath and electrodes are predicted as a result of applying the three‐phase AC voltages to the EAF. The temperature distribution in different parts of the furnace is also evaluated as a result of the electromagnetic field analysis.Research limitations/implicationsThis paper considers an ideal condition for the AC arc. Non‐linearity of the arc during the melting, which leads to power quality disturbances, is not considered. In most prior researches on the electrical arc furnace, a non‐linear circuit model is usually used for calculation of power quality phenomena distributions. In this paper, the FEM is used instead of non‐linear circuits, and calculated voltage and current densities in the linear arc model. The FEM results directly depend on the physical properties considered for the arc.Originality/valueSteady‐state arc shapes, based on the Bowman model, are used to calculate and evaluate the geometry of the arc in a real and practical three‐phase AC arc furnace. A new approach to modeling AC arcs is developed, assuming that the instantaneous geometry of the AC arc at any time is constant and is similar to the geometry of a DC arc with the root mean square value of the current waveform of the AC arc. A time‐stepping 3D FEM is utilized to calculate the electromagnetic field in the AC arc as a function of time.

Abstract:
Electric arc furnace (EAF) steel manufacturing is an important recycling activity which contributes to the recovery of steel resources and steel scrap/waste minimization. Because of the content of plastics, coatings and paintings as well as other nonferrous materials in the charge during melting, a strong emission of pollutants, including polluting substance group consists of persistent organic pollutions (POPs) represented by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs), and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs) occurs. This study was set out to investigate emissions of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDDs/Fs) from the stack of a new electric-arc furnace-dust treatment plant installed during modernisation of the Melt Shop in CMC SISAK d.o.o., Croatia. Obtained results have been compared with previously obtained results of PCDDs/Fs emission measurements from the old electric-arc furnace dust treatment without dust drop-out box, as well as quenching tower. The total PCDDs/Fs concentration in the stack off gases of both electric arc furnaces EAF A and EAF B were 0.2098 and 0.022603 ng I-TEQ/Nm3 respectively, and these results are close to previous obtained results by other authors. The calculated values of the emission factors for PCDDs/Fs calculated on the basis of measured PCDDs/Fs concentration in the stack off gases in 2008 and 2011 were 1.09 and 0.22 ng I-TEQ/ ton steel, respectively.

Abstract:
A transient mathematical model was developed for the description of fluid flow, heat transfer and electromagnetic phenomena involved in the production of ferronickel in electric arc furnaces. The key operating variables considered were the thermal and electrical conductivity of the slag and the shape, immersion depth and applied electric potential of the electrodes. It was established that the principal stimuli of the velocities in the slag bath were the electric potential and immersion depth of the electrodes and the thermal and electrical conductivities of the slag. Additionally, it was determined that, under the set of operating conditions examined, the maximum slag temperature ranged between 1756 and 1825 K, which is in accordance with industrial measurements. Moreover, it was affirmed that contributions to slag stirring due to Lorentz forces and momentum forces due to the release of carbon monoxide bubbles from the electrode surface were negligible.
