STEEL INDUSTRY

Natural gas is the main energy source used for heating in the leaching process, which uses hot oil or steam. For drying and curing processes, natural gas powered infrared burners are used to enable direct heating.

Rubber end products include surgical and examination gloves, neurological catheters, fingerstalls and decorative balloons.

Melting
Steel melting is achieved by means of striking an electric arc between graphite electrodes and the charge. Natural gas / Oxygen burners are used for supplementary firing in this process. It produces a high flame temperature to preheat the raw material and maintain molten steel temperature, thus reducing energy costs in the melting process.

Holding
High levels of luminance and flame temperature produced by the combustion of natural gas is used to provide enhanced heat transfer (increased efficiency) to maintain the molten steel temperature.

Casting
The easy controllability of natural gas firing provides a constant heating environment to hold the molten steel at the required temperature for the casting process.

Cutting
A natural gas / oxygen cutter is used to ensure a clean cutting surface for the steel billets.

Reheating
By using twin-bed regenerative natural gas combustion burners, a substantial amount of energy can be recovered, thus increasing the thermal efficiency of the furnace.
