A Carbon Injection System is used in Steel Melt Shops to introduce carbon into molten steel for refining and improving slag foaming. It enhances energy efficiency, steel quality, and furnace performance.
Type: Fully automatic control system.
Application: Injects graphite powder into molten steel through a lance pipe assembly.
Storage Tank Capacity: Minimum 750 kg of graphite powder.
Injection Rate: 20–100 kg/min.
Material for Injection: Graphite powder with a maximum grain size of 5mm.
Operating Pressure: 2–4 kg/cm² compressed air.
Test Pressure: 8 kg/cm².
Dehumidifier & Air Filter: Ensures moisture-free and contamination-free air.
Digital Display: Electronic weighing system with digital indication.
Construction: Robust steel frame with lifting lugs.
Accuracy: ±3 kg.
Power Source: AC 415V, 50Hz, 3-phase.
Distance from Furnace: Approx. 20 meters.
Climatic Conditions: Operates in humidity levels from 20% to 95% RH.
Foamy Slag Formation: Improves slag foaming for better thermal efficiency.
Energy Optimization: Reduces power consumption in Electric Arc Furnaces (EAFs).
Steel Quality Enhancement: Helps in carbon control and refining.
Automated Maintenance: Self-diagnostic system ensures consistent carbon flow.
Multiple Injection Points: Can inject carbon at different locations within the furnace
