Resumo

Products are awarded of Ecoplant status in the SMS Meer organization, on the basis of their compliance with the following economic and ecological criteria as significant reduction in the use of raw materials, significant reduction in the use of energy and operating media, significant reduction in emissions and significant improvement in the recycling quota. This article will present an overview of the Tung Ho plant, to examine then in detail the core technological concept of the direct link between caster and rolling mill and the related considerable advantages in terms of reduction of energy requirement and emissions. A breakthrough step in Minimill design took place in 2008, the outcome of the combined efforts of SMS Meer Concast, SMS Elotherm and SMS Meer, all members of the SMS Group: Tung Ho Steel Enterprise Corp. is the Taiwanese company where a real uninterrupted route has been established between the operations of an electric steelworks with continuous caster and those of a rolling mill. This concept is easily applicable to all the other countries with fast grow forecast like Brazil. Brazilian grows and energy policy will be linked with the Tung Ho experience. Limitations of energy losses, fuel-oil consumption, and emissions of pollutants in the atmosphere demonstrate SMS concern for economic and ecological issues.
