Objective The overall objective is to develop a new concept and a new operative model for on-line control and optimisation of the vacuum degassing process. The concepts are either based on a new and unique technique as the modified OES method or complete new applications on proven technology as for slag level measurements by radio-wave interferometry and vacuum temperature measurements by thermovision camera. The concepts will be adapted to refining models developed in a current ECSC research program. The result will be an overall model for dynamic process control of the vacuum degassing process.
