Objective The production of high quality hot metal (pig iron) at relatively low cost is the most important prerequisite for an economically competitive quality/price ratio of the steel products. The need for use of on-line measurement systems for process control purposes is creating an exploding field of research and development. The aim of the project is both to adapt an in situ, on-line, analytical tool of LIBS using laser modulation for continuous detection of K, Na, Zn and Pb and to install and operate it in order to assist the process control and optimisation of the blast furnace operation and to contribute to close the mass balances of K, Na, Zn and Pb.
