Objective

In modern steel making, process control has become a top priority, with a special emphasis on slag and steel chemistry. Steel cleanliness assessment must be performed ever faster and more accurately, making optical emission spectroscopy a tool of choice for analytical laboratories. The aim of this project is to develop fast and robust models for the slag composition control during steel making and the quantification of inclusions in the final product using laser and spark sources.
