Plasma furnace plant

The plasma furnace plant will be used for research on the reduction, refining and valorisation of slags and other waste products from metallurgical processes as well as for the treatment primary ores and concentrates.

Hauptort der Ausführung: Helmholtz-Institut Freiberg des HDZR Building F110 Hall 030 Chemnitzer Straße 40 09599 Freiberg Deutschland/Germany

The contractor is responsible for engineering, building, delivery, installation and commissioning of the plasma furnace plant as well as the instruction and training of operatives (customer’s staff). Experiments in the plant will typically last three or four days and consists of following steps: • controlled heating up the furnace plant with a temperature increase over time that will minimize damage of the refractory lining • introducing material via a granule feeder station • intermittently tapping of metal and slag phase • emptying the furnace by a final tapping • cooling down the furnace with a temperature decrease over time that will minimize damage of the refractory lining Typical materials that will be treated in the furnace plant are: • electric arc furnace slags and dusts • waelz process’ slags • copper converter and nickel-copper converter slags • ferronickel slags • refractory linings of smelting furnaces The plasma furnace plant has to be controlled and monitored by a Process Logic Control (PLC) with a human machine interface (HMI). Fully detailed requirements and evaluation criteria are listed in the tender documents.
