Practice to reduce metal charge consumption in BOF
In order to effectively reduce the consumption of metal materials in the converter,the main factors affect-ing the consumption of metal materials in the converter are studied,and the scheme to reduce the consumption of metal materials is put forward.By adjusting the structure of raw and auxiliary materials in the converter,such as in-creasing the application of iron containing materials,optimizing production processes and technologies such as smel-ting,slagging,endpoint control,and continuous casting production,strengthening the control of the converter process to achieve the ultimate control of metal charge consumption.Through practice,in 2022,the metal material consumption of the converter at Shiheng Steelmaking Plant decreased by 2.24 kg/t,effectively reducing steel mate-rial consumption and steelmaking production costs,and achieving good economic benefits.
