Abstract

TENOVA'S INTELLIGENT EAF TECHNOLOGY (I EAF®) IS A PROCESS CONTROL PROGRAM FOR THE OPTIMIZATION OF ELECTRIC ARC FURNACES (EAF) AND IS BASED ON THE REAL-TIME MEASUREMENT OF EAF OFF-GAS AS WELL AS THE APPLICATION, IN REAL-TIME, OF PROCESS MODULES AND CONTROL ALGORITHMS FOR THE DYNAMIC CONTROL OF THE MELTING PROCESS. THIS TECHNOLOGY IS PART OF TENOVA’S PROCESS CONTROL SOLUTION THAT IS DESIGNED TO MEET THE NEEDS AND REQUIREMENTS OF THE DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION ERA AND INDUSTRY 4.0 FOR MANUFACTURING. THIS PAPER WILL OUTLINE THE PERSPECTIVE OF TENOVA'S DIGITAL PLATFORM FOR EAF PROCESS CONTROL, INDICATING THE INTEGRATION OF THE I EAF® SOLUTION, BOTH HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE AND DIGITAL CONNECTIVITY OF EACH ELEMENT. RESULTS ACHIEVED FROM RECENT INSTALLATIONS USING THE DIGITAL PLATFORM ARE ALSO DISCUSSED.
