Project Information

Grant agreement ID: 7210-PR-010

Project closed

Start date 1 July 1997

End date 31 December 2000

Funded under

• Medium-term guidelines for the ECSC steel RTD programme of research and pilot/demonstration projects, 1996-2002

Total cost € 1 315 500,00

EU contribution € 789 300,00

Coordinated by

British Steel plc
United Kingdom

Objective

The objective of this project is to develop tools and techniques based on artificial intelligence to monitor the performance of casts through secondary steel-making stations and to calculate alloying requirements and strategy through the secondary steel-making process, using a combination of metallurgical calculations and expert experience, to achieve optimum metallurgical and cost performance. The project will investigate the potential for combining these aspects into an intelligent secondary steel-making supervisory system.
