HIsarna Pilot Plant Project
پروژه ماشین آلات آزمایشی به روش HIsarna
ABSTRACT
HIsarnaTM represents a new phase in the global direct smelting development cycle. It is, in essence, a merger between Tata Steel- developed smelt cyclone technology and HIsmelt TM (Rio Tinto)-developed bath smelting technology. A pilot plant at IJmuiden, Netherlands with a nominal capacity of 60,000 t/a is nearing completion and is due to start shortly.
The catalyst that brought these technologies together and made the pilot plant project possible is ULCOS. The key driver from this perspective is efficient, cost-effective carbon dioxide collection for potential geological storage. HIsarna’s inherently simple, once- through gas flow path provides an easy carbon dioxide collection option without the need for a carbon dioxide scrubber.
