Optimisation of sinter plant operating conditions and BF burden material resources using advanced multivariate statistics

Objective

The project aims at developing an overall iron making production strategy that will minimise the cost of sinter material blends and coking coal blends whilst maintaining production and quality targets. The effects of sinter and coke quality on abnormal BF operation will be established and used to define sinter productivity and quality requirements, together with coke quality requirements. Classification methods will be used to classify sintering ores according to mineralogy and chemistry to improve confidence in blend selection and for use in generic models. Fuzzy linear programming will allow the cost minimisation of blends whilst maintaining the sinter productivity and quality demanded by the BF.
