Existing steel continuous reheat furnace performance can be significantly enhanced using flameless oxyfuel heating technology, according to a paper to be presented during AISTech 2012, by Linde North America and two European steel manufacturers.
By installing flameless oxyfuel burners or the new Linde REBOX®HLL oxygen injection technology, existing reheat furnaces can be upgraded to increase throughput (heating capacity), reduce specific fuel consumption, and minimize gaseous emissions of CO2 and NOX with less capital investment compared with other alternatives and, in some cases, complete reversibility.
The AISTech 2012 Conference will be held at The Georgia Congress Center, Atlanta, Georgia, from May 7th to May 10th.
The paper, entitled Flameless Oxyfuel Slab Reheating Experiences, will be presented on Monday, May 7th, from 9:30 am in the “Hot Sheet Rolling/Energy & Utilities – Fuel for Thought” session in Building A – Level Four Concourse A403.
