Periclase-carbon linings made from objects supplied by OAO Borovichi Refractory Combine have been tested under operating conditions of converter workshop No. 2 at OAO NLMK in 2007 -2008 There is comparative analysis of linings and directions for improving refractory composition are determined.Specialists of OAO Novolipetsk Metallurgical Combine are devoting increased attention to the quality and reduction in cost of smelted steel. Intensification of production operations during the manufacture and processing of steel (argon blowing, chemical heating complicates the service conditions of refractory linings in metallurgical units: converters, steel-pouring ladles, electric furnaces, furnace ladle devices. The cost of refractory linings made from oxide-carbon refractories and operating in regimes of the intense action of high temperature, molten metals and slags, various gas atmospheres, mechanical loads, and also expenditure on repair and maintenance, contribute a considerable part of the cost of output. The service conditions for lining a converter in CW-2 of OAO NLMK are provided below:
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
