Objetivo While awaiting the arrival of new melting-reduction processes, the ore-coke-iron chain requires a continuous evaluation of costs. The restriction in the number of blast furnaces requires exemplary operational regularity. Artificial intelligence techniques based on industrial know-how should contribute to the control of processes. After several years of study and preliminary feasibility analyses, Sollac has envisaged equipping two blast furnaces with an industrial system integrating all the blast furnace operating know-how of the group based on AI techniques. The aim of the project is to create a long-lasting open-ended data processing system, composed of modules which can be re-used on other processes, and which can be supported by various hardware environments.
