Frequently, on a turnaround of a Fluid Catalytic Cracking (FCC) unit, refractory linings in the major vessels and transfer lines are found to have sustained significant damage. Repairs are time consuming, and can be difficult to effect, for example in catalyst transfer lines, reactor riser, or reactor overhead vapor line to the main fractionator. These refractory failures occur for various ...
Nov 03, 2016· The direct reduction process. HBI is the product of reducing iron ore with natural gas. This is called the direct reduction process and is an environmentally-friendly production process; a DRI plant uses natural gas which is more environmentally sound than coke. The reduction process takes place in the reduction tower.

1.1 Myth - DRI use Significantly Increases Steel Costs x Reality - Not if Mills Optimize Operations The production of DRI/HBI has grown almost exponentially since its inception in the early seventies (Figure 1) [1]. In Mexico, Trinidad and Argentina steel mills use DRI supplied by captive plants.
In order to avoid dust formation and emissions in the plant, preheating is best done inside the converter before the hot metal is charged. This allows the refractory-lined converter vessel to be used as a combustion chamber and the primary dedusting equipment for heat recovery and off-gas cleaning.
Dec 22, 2016· 51,000 refractory bricks weighing a total of 1,100 tons were used in relining the furnace. The heaviest refractory brick weighed 2 tons and measured 280 x 70 x 60 cm. Around 260 m³ of refractory bricks were exchanged in the Cowper stove alone. The entire work of replacing the refractory bricks took about 30,000 man hours.
Apr 05, 2018· Cleveland-Cliffs Inc. held a groundbreaking ceremony April 5 for its first hot briquetted iron (HBI) production plant, the only plant of its kind in the Great Lakes region. The $700 million facility, which will be built on a site near the Port of Toledo, will produce HBI for use in electric arc furnaces.
Nov 15, 2013· FASTMET/FASTMELT process presents an alternative route to iron making in capacities ranging from 100,000 tons per annum to 500,000 tons per annum.
