Focus Area

  • Scrap Yard Management and Charge Design
  • EAF/IF Performance Optimization
  • Secondary Metallurgy Optimization

Short Description

This project involved a comprehensive evaluation of an integrated EAF-based steel plant operating with a 100% scrap charge. The on-site fact-finding mission focused on understanding the current practices in electric arc furnace (EAF) and ladle furnace (LF) operations, alloying procedures, tapping logistics, and traceability. qoncept assessed the process design, operating parameters, and typical bottlenecks across steel grades. The final report included a critical analysis of the current process route, identified limitations in yield, temperature control, and alloying accuracy, and provided recommendations for short-term improvements and potential mid-term investments to enhance production consistency and cost-efficiency.
