Metallurgical production generates ferrous waste at every stage of the process. Solid wastes that arise in metallurgical plants include, for example, blast furnace slag, sludge, dust, scale and others. The composition of these materials varies depending on the source of production. The use there fine-grained iron-bearing wastes is possible within a metallurgical cycle. Attention was paid to the possibility of scaling and subsequent use for the blast furnaces. The scales contain mainly FeO, so energy savings occur ...

This article is focused on possibilities of dedusting equipments to capture particulate matters from the chosen production process of the metallurgical plants in the Czech Republic. It deals with the issue of particulate matter generated during the production of pig iron. The article presents the manufacturing process at main sections of a metallurgical enterprise for the production of pig iron and possible formation of particulate emissions in individual sections. The emissions from sinter plants dominate the ove...

The problems of sintering process are dust emissions and pollutant emissions, especially SO2. During the actual production in the sintering process emission ceiling limits are exceeded. They are being implemented measures that prevent from breaking SO2 emission limit. The sulfur content of feedstocks influences both the quality of sinter and the pig iron and the amount of SO2 emissions. One of the possibilities is a partial substitution of coke dust with anthracite. World steel production will continue to be domin...
