Raw materials:
· Mill scale 60%(ph7)+Steel slag magnetic separation fines 10%(ph14)+Dedusting ash 30%
Challenges:
· Use briquettes as a coolant in BOF converters to replace scrap.
· No drying equipment available – briquettes must be air-dried.
· Reduce production costs through lower binder dosage.
· Binder must be free of calcium and magnesium to meet steelmaking requirements.
· Need to achieve sufficient strength after 3 days of natural drying to meet BOF steelmaking standards.
Jianjie Solution:
Jianjie developed a customized air-dried binder specifically designed for the customer's unique raw material composition and production constraints. Our solution addressed the following key challenges:
· High pH Compatibility: Successfully managed the high pH levels of the raw materials (up to pH 14).
· No Drying Equipment Required: Enabled briquettes to achieve the required strength through natural air-drying within 3 days.
· Cost Reduction: Reduced binder usage and overall production costs by 10%.
· Calcium- and Magnesium-Free Formulation: Met the strict composition requirements for BOF steelmaking.
