Resumo
There are several variables regarding steel quality that must be controlled in a melt shop. When taking into account the formation of inclusions, some must be considered, like the ones raised in secondary metallurgy, vacuum degassing along with continuous casting operation. In this work, a computational tool, combining Excel macros and Python programming language was developed in order to correlate scrapping and the influence of several process variables, with the proposal to be implemented in steel plants. It was concluded that, according to a review done by the authors and the study carried out in this manuscript the methodology created for the evaluation of this correlation is valid, although it would be important to check with more industrial data the calibration of the tool.
