Improvement in performance of the tuyere/refractory system in AOD converter for stainless steel production

Ziel

The tuyere system (shape, type, gas used) and refractory surrounding is critical to metallurgical performance, productivity and consumption of AOD. Improvements of such a system are very effective in increasing AOD performance. The present proposal is aimed at developing improved refractories for use in the tuyere area and at developing improved shapes and sizes of tuyeres, as well as investigating their position in the AOD convertor. The study of improved tuyeres/refractory system(s) will concern stainless steel production in both routine production processes and with injection of oxidizing powders. The results of the research work will provide reduced tuyere and refractory wear, will evaluate the capabilities of innovative types of tuyere, and define production processes with improved industrial results.
