SUMMARY:Blast furnace casting guidance model
DESCRIPTION:Management of the hearth drainage, and the related hot metal and slag liquid levels, is one of the most important requirements to maintain a smooth and productive blast furnace (BF) operation. Hatch implemented a Casting Guidance Model (CGM) in support of Algoma Steel’s efforts to enhance their casting practice. The CGM provides real-time information to help the operators as they adjust the furnace casting practices using richer information about the hearth status. The CGM provides two key benefits; (i) real-time monitoring, visualization, and forecasting of hot metal and slag levels; and (ii) scenario analysis to simulate the impact of casting practice changes in response to changing blast furnace conditions. This paper outlines the CGM functionality and the implementation strategy at Algoma BF7. Benefits to the casthouse operation and furnace performance are discussed.
