Abstract

After about two and a half years of interruption in production, the ArcelorMittal Group decided to resume operations at the ArcelorMittal Sul-Fluminense steel mill. The first month of operation showed that several key performance indicators were out of goals combined, such as power-on, tap-to-tap time, electric energy consumption, oxygen consumption and others. This paper aims to present the teamwork carried out between Lumar Metals and ArcelorMittal after the commissioning of EAF #2, implementing the reengineering of the chemical package equipment and adjustments of the electrical and chemical program until the goals were achieved
