Steel Plant Residues Recovery - Brochure

The increasing demand to reuse residues from steel plants leads to sophisticated solidification and granulation processes as well as the production of highly viscous suspensions. Materials from very different origins need to be homogenised by turbulent mixing processes to ensure the required consistency for the approptiate handling and metalurgical processing. However, apart from the mixing device, the appropriate design of feeding and dosing facilities for such mixing plants is of utmost importance. The differing conveying characteristics of the residues require a wide range of different conveying technologies. In the past econ industries have delivered systems for the reuse of typical residues such as blast furnace and converter dust as well as sludge from centrifuges and filterpresses. Most often the use of additives such as lime, coal dust or bentonite is beneficial to ensure the required product quality. At econ industries, the entire process technology can be developed individually with the customer by use of our existing pilot testing facility. Thus, econ industries is not only specialised in design and construction of the mixing technology itself, but also to engineer the customised peripheral equipment to deliver turn-key treatment units.
