SUMMARY:Optimization of calcium treatment to eliminate ladle nozzle clogging in continuous casting of aluminum killed steels
DESCRIPTION:Ladle nozzle clogging is a problematic phenomenon in Continuous Casting of Aluminum killed Steels which output of ladle nozzle is reduced. It causes many problems in the production process, such as reducing productivity and increasing casting defects. In spite of extensive research on tundish nozzle clogging, few studies have been done on ladle nozzle clogging, especially in steels deoxidized only by aluminum. In this research, by using scanning electron microscopy analyze, the relationship between the chemical composition of non-metallic inclusions, molten steel and ladle nozzle clogging has been investigated. Due to optimization of calcium treatment in Hormozgan steel company, the number of ladle nozzle clogging and returned molten steel from continuous casting decreased significantly. As a result quantity and quality of produced slab increased.
