Resumen de Steel plants need improved flexibility
Steelmakers need to be "quickly adaptable to changes in the steel production or economic climate", he said. "Refractory modifications in steel plants are too slow and inefficient. That needs to change." According to [Rinus Siebring], steelmakers often "lack knowledge" of wear patterns of the refractory products they use and the way the materials react when in operation of the ladle.
"We need more effective monitoring of the wear of the ladle," he said. "You can act early if you know what's happening."
