Abstract

During 2006 four chilled blast furnaces were recovered using theoxyfuel lance technology. All recoveries were successful andbrought the blast furnace back to full production within 200 hours.This recovery method has been under constant development since1990 and has now been applied over 25 times. It is considered safer,faster, easier and cleaner than the traditional recovery methods forchilled hearths.
