  2. 1. A Process Integration Approach to Assessing Possibilities for Improved Material Efficiency in Nordic ore-based Iron- and Steelmaking Systems

    Author : Katarina Lundkvist; Caisa Samuelsson; Mikael Larsson; Timo Paananen; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Process metallurgy; Process integration; System analysis; Process Metallurgy; Processmetallurgi;

    Abstract : Iron- and steel production is a material- and energy intensive industrial activity. The production of one tonne of steel commonly results in some 400 kilograms of residual materials such as metallurgical slags, dusts, sludge and scales generated in the processes. READ MORE

  4. 2. Rheocasting of aluminium alloys : Process and components characteristics

    Author : Mostafa Payandeh; Anders E. W. Jarfors; Magnus Wessén; Helen Atkinson; Jönköping University; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Rheocasting; aluminium alloy; RheoMetal TM process; microstructural characteristics; component properties and performance; robust design process;

    Abstract : Semi-Solid Metal (SSM) casting is a promising technology offering an opportunity to manufacture net-shape, complex geometry metal components in a single operation. However, the absence of foundry guidelines and limited design data for SSM casting makes it challenging to predict the performance of both process and components. READ MORE

  5. 3. The process atmosphere as a parameter in the Laser-Powder Bed Fusion process

    Author : Camille Nicole Géraldine Pauzon; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; process stability; 316L stainless steel; Ti-6Al-4V; Laser-Powder Bed Fusion; processing atmosphere; process control; powder degradation; Additive Manufacturing;

    Abstract : Laser-Powder Bed Fusion (L-PBF) is an Additive Manufacturing (AM) technique that allows to produce near-net shape components of complex design. Applied to metallic materials, L-PBF allows to consolidate subsequent layers of powder using the heat from laser radiation. READ MORE

  6. 4. A study of mold flux entrapment and gas entrainment in an ingot casting process

    Author : Jun Yin; Mikael Ersson; Pär Jönsson; Yogeshwar Sahai; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mold flux entrapments; CFD; Gas entrainment; Ingot casting process; Uphill teeming process; Side teeming process; Numerical simulation; Non-metallic inclusions; Metallurgical process science; Metallurgisk processvetenskap; Materials Science and Engineering; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : The focus of this work is to study the gas entrainment and mold flux entrapments during the ingot filling process based on physical and numerical modelling.The formation of the free surface was investigated in the uphill teeming method, which illustrates a dynamic change at a quasi-steady state.

  7. 5. Development Towards Sustainable Ironmaking : The IronArc Process

    Author : Jonas Svantesson; Mikael Ersson; Robert Eriksson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; IronArc; Refractory wear; plasma generator; freeze-lining; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Materials Science and Engineering;

    Abstract : The IronArc process is a novel process for a more sustainable production of liquid pig iron using electricity for heating and hydrocarbons for reduction. This thesis aims to facilitate its use by investigating possible refractory solutions and the gas blowing in the process which is done by a plasma generator. READ MORE
