Abstract

Environmental protection is an important aspect at sintering since many years. Due to more stringent requirements from the authorities, the extended cleaning of the waste gas of sinterplants has become necessary. A new sinterplant waste gas treat- ment facility has been developed at full scale which is in operation since middle of 2006. First operational results of the commissioning phase and results of the im- provement phase until full operation in conjunction with the ROGESA sinterplants shall be given. The process developed by PAUL WURTH will be described and spe- cific consumption figures will be highlighted. The EFA® technology (Entrained Flow Absorber technology/process) will become state-of-the-art of sinterplant desulphuri- zation, dedusting, and dedioxination in order to fulfill the strict environmental rules in many countries all over the world.
