Abstract

In the ironmaking industry Paul Wurth is very well know with its particular equipment essential for modern blast furnace operation and since almost 10 years also as a main plant builder of complete blast furnace plants. On top of this, Paul Wurth together with its subsidiary in Germany, Paul Wurth Umwelttechnik GmbH, has developed equipment and processes related to the iron and steel industry which contribute to a clean and sustainable operation of different plants in integrated steel works. The report shows examples of gas cleaning facilities in blast furnace, in steel and in sinter plants. Furthermore, the paper shows Paul Wurth’s commitment to energy saving and recovery activities within the iron and steel industry as well as residue treatment.
