Abstract

Tenova's Intelligent EAF (i EAF®) technology provides a multi-step roadmap for continuous improvement, cost savings and increased security. A complete i EAF® system is a combination of real-time measurements, process models and effective control models. This combination has the objective of reducing operating costs. In the same way, this solution provides operational security in a global view. Starting with this strong solution, Tenova has recently added an active acoustic solution for the detection of water leaks in cooling panels that provides EAF operational security with the advantage of precise identification of the location of the water leak. This paper describes the technical details and advantages of an off-gas measurement system, with an operational and safety focus, as well as the integration of the new acoustic technology from Tenova.
