The Paul Wurth gas cleaning system for the Thyssen Steel Brazil furnace was one of several Paul Wurth gas cleaning systems we supplied with UHPC wear protection complete the wear protection. The installation was carried out by a local installation company.
We
installed the anchors directly at the steel construction company. The
UHPC wear protection lining was then lined on site at the steel mill in
the installed condition. The total lining area was approximately 1200
sqm. The layer thickness was specified by the plant builder from 25 mm
to 40 mm depending on the area in the cyclone.
UHPC Mortar 2000 HT was specified by our customer as the wear protection material. UHPC Mortar 2000 HT is enormously wear resistant even at continuous temperatures up to 1200°C. The cyclone should have a normal average operating temperature of 400 - 500°C. However, it is possible that hot gases up to 1000°C may enter the cyclone uncontrolled from blast furnace.
The planned service life is at least 10 years. During these 10 years the blast furnace will not be stopped and therefore repair of the cyclone will be possible only under very difficult conditions.
