Abstract

Coke consumption at blast furnaces is steadily rising as hot-metal production expands. Meeting the hot-metal demand simply by improving the quality of the iron ore and coke is no longer possible. The remaining options are to construct new coke batteries, to reconstruct existing batteries, and to improve the operational stability of coke batteries. High construction costs limit the applicability of the first two approaches. Accordingly, a high priority is to improve operational stability by reducing incidents and accidents and thus reducing furnace downtime.
