CO2 reduction in reheating furnaces

Objective

The objective of this project is to demonstrate the capability of new technology, such as regenerative and oxyfuel combustion system based on flameless oxidation to allow a step change in environmental impact of steel reheating furnaces reducing at the same time the CO2 and NOx emissions in comparison with conventional furnaces equipped with central recuperator and flame burners.

To reach this goal regenerative and oxyfuel combustion systems will be tested in pilot and industrial furnaces and investigated with the support of CFD combustion modelling. The effect of new combustion systems on the product quality will also be analysed.

The project will give recommendation for the best practice to install and operate with high reliability the new combustion systems in reheating furnaces for different type of gas gaseous fuels with high reliability.
