2 NOVEMBER 2012 N 1 POLYMER Recycled tires to produce foaming slag in the EAF steel making process INJECTION TECHNOLOGY ONESTEEL NSW Pty Ltd appoints world-leading supplier MORE to promote Polymer Injection. MORE and OneSteel have agreed to co-operate to promote Polymer Injection to leading steelmakers around the World. MORE will be OneSteel s preferred supplier for EAF steel-making solutions packages. The two companies will be working to develop new solutions in the field of steelmaking. Polymer Injection, developed by OneSteel in collaboration with the University of NSW (Sydney-Australia), utilizes recycled tires and other polymers to improve the properties of foaming slag, enabling EAF steelmakers to reduce injected carbon costs, decrease electrical energy consumption, improve yields and help the environment by diverting tires from the landfill. This Australian invention further reinforces the green credentials of the electric arc furnace produced steel. How it works In conventional EAF steelmaking, injection of carbon produces foaming slag which covers the molten steel during the melting process. Polymer injection technology provides benefits to EAF steelmakers by improving the foaming properties of the slag, using a blend of polymer and carbon. A combination of rubber and anthracite produces a superior foaming slag volume than anthracite alone. Established process OneSteel has conducted extensive testing that shows that the use of polymer injection technology has no adverse effect on steel quality or to the environment and over heats have been performed with this technology in operation so far. Benefits Reduced electrical energy consumption Reduced transformation costs Reduced emissions levels Improved productivity Improved slag foaming
3 NEWS FROM THE STEELMAKING WORLD OPERATIONAL RESULTS AT NUNKI STEEL MODULE TECHNOLOGY IN OPERATION FOR SPECIAL STEEL PRODUCTION Nunki Steel S.p.A. is located in San Giorgio di Nogaro (UD), Italy, and produces an extensive range of specialty steel products. The steel grade range includes low / medium / high alloy, carbon, chromium alloy, chromium-molybdenum, ferritic alloy for high-pressure / temperature, which are cast into ingots with a maximum weight of 170 tons. The meltshop operates with an AC spout electric arc furnace, twin-shell ladle furnace (LF) and a single vacuum oxygen degasser (VOD).

To both improve the reliability of our products and reduce the production costs, MORE has invested in state of the art CNC machining and turning centres. With this vertical level integration MORE produces 100% of the critical components in house, which will guarantee a high level of production and a quick delivery of spare parts.
5 NOVEMBER 2012 N 1 METALLURGICAL IMPROVEMENTS ALUMINUM INJECTION For the production of chromium alloy steel grades, during the melting and refining stages the HI_JET injector is used for the pneumatic aluminum injection into the slag/steel interface in order to recovery chromium from the slag as per the following chemical equation: Cr 2 O Al = Al 2 O Cr Theoretically, the chromium recovery is of 1,9 kg (4.2 lb) Cr for 1 kg (2.2 lb) of aluminum. Moreover, this chromium reduction is exothermic: adding 1 kg (2.2 lb) of aluminum generates a heat quantity of 2.9 kwh (1600 C / 2912 F). Parts of aluminum reacts with the oxygen becoming aluminum oxide (Al 2 O 3 ) which produces higher heat such as 8.7 kwh/kg Al (1600 C / 2912 F). Thus the aluminum injection has a double benefit: chromium recovery and additional exothermic energy input. Aluminum used for pneumatic injection is available from different sources: grains produced by metallurgical melting from primary Al or secondary Al grains treated mechanically (shredded) from scrap (cans, packing, etc). The use of secondary Al is cheaper. The lower quality of material does not influence the chromium recovery in the process. Grain size used for the slag injection is between 1 and 3 mm. The aluminum is injected at a flow rate of 30 kg/min (65 lb/min) during the refining stage, the average quantity of injected material is about 3,4 kg/t (6.7 lb/st) of liquid steel. OPERATIONAL RESULTS With the MODULE TECHNOLOGY there is a reduction of electrical energy and power on time and the foaming slag practice improves. Hence, higher production rates and substantial conversion cost savings per ton of liquid steel produced are achieved.
