Key Competitive DriverThe largest technical challenge approaching Tata Steel UK in the next 20 years is to decarbonise product. 80% of CO2 in steel production is generated in the process steps leading up to casting. The current process technology portfolio has overall similarities to others internationally which achieve up to 20% lower carbon emission production than the average at port-talbot due to the incorporation of high proportions of ferrous scrap both in the BF and BOF.This project aims to add to the body of investigations developing knowledge on the potential of higher ferrous scrap proportion use now, through transition periods and into potential future steel production conditions for the business.Although aspects such as residual levels will become critical factors in the application of scrap in the production of strip steels, the current control factors which limit scrap usage on a daily basis in PT are:1. Reaching tapping temperature (1o average gain = £#.##/t/a)2. Maintaining quality of steel within the BOF - process control such as slag properties and steel cleanness (Al, Si, P and S contamination)3. Time taken for scrap to melt (Size, shape and packing)PT is investing in a new scrap pre-heating lance which will enable use of increased scrap volume in the BOF, however this has the potential to have several negative impacts including increased in process time, high levels of scrap oxidation in the vessel, and the formation of intermediate scrap skulls which may impact melting times negatively. With this in mind this project intends to focus on the potential of scrap usage for BOF process stability in order to maximize gain of the heating lance instalment and limit potential negative impacts. In addition, this specific institute is chosen to deliver the project due to the expertise of identified personal, synergistic activities such as SUSTAIN, I-space, TFI-Demo, SWITCH...etc, the locality of training increasing likely hood to inhouse newly skilled personal and the leverage of funding from EMR to fund a synergistic studentship exploring fundamental questions for the application of scrap in EAF processing.Objectives:1. To understand the composition of strategic high volume scrap grades such as heavy basic and incinerator scrap 2. To re-asses the effect of scrap composition on BOF temp after interaction with the pre-treatment lance.3. Develop understanding for scrap basket mix importance under variable load volumes and with/without pre-heating4. To inform the steelmaking VIU model as to the better application of scrap grades under new working conditions of pre-heating and high scrap volume use in the steelmaking process.

未来20年，塔塔钢铁英国公司面临的最大技术挑战是使产品脱碳。钢铁生产中80%的二氧化碳是在铸造前的工艺步骤中产生的。目前的工艺技术组合与国际上其他工艺技术组合总体上相似，由于在高炉和转炉中加入了高比例的黑色金属废料，因此在port-talbot的碳排放产量比平均水平低20%。这个项目的目的是增加的调查机构发展知识的潜力，更高的铁废料比例使用现在，通过过渡时期和潜在的未来钢铁生产条件的业务。虽然残余水平等方面将成为废钢在带钢生产中应用的关键因素，但目前限制废钢在PT中每日使用的控制因素是：1。达到攻丝温度（10平均增益=£#.##/t/a）在转炉内保持钢的质量-过程控制，如炉渣性能和钢的清洁度（Al, Si， P和S污染）废料熔化所需的时间（尺寸、形状和包装）PT公司正在投资一种新的废料预热喷枪，这将使转炉中废料的使用量增加，然而，这可能会产生几个负面影响，包括处理时间的增加、容器中废料的高水平氧化以及中间废料头骨的形成，这可能会对熔化时间产生负面影响。考虑到这一点，本项目打算将重点放在废钢用于转炉工艺稳定性的潜力上，以最大限度地提高加热枪装置的收益，并限制潜在的负面影响。此外，由于确定了个人的专业知识，选择这个特定的研究所来交付项目，协同活动，如SUSTAIN， I-space, TFI-Demo, SWITCH…等，培训的地点增加了新技术人员的可能性，以及EMR资金的杠杆作用，以资助一个探索废钢在EAF处理中应用的基本问题的协同学生。了解策略性高容量废料等级的成分，例如重碱基和焚化炉废料2。重新评估废钢成分与预处理枪相互作用后对转炉温度的影响。了解在不同负荷和有/没有预热的情况下，废料篮混合料的重要性。向炼钢VIU模型介绍在预热和炼钢过程中高废钢用量的新工况下废钢品级的更好应用。
