Operational Results of Latest Vacuum Plant Start-Ups
As the request for quality and stainless steels is rising throughout the industry and as the added value through vacuum treated steels is increased,the number of installed and contracted vacuum plants for the improvement of the steel quality is getting higher and higher.Nowadays,vacuum treatment facilities are not only to be installed in integrated and stainless steel plants,but approx.half of the so-called mini-mills are built worldwide with mostly tank degassers.In this paper,we would like to take a look on the design as well the operational results of our latest commissioned vacuum plants like the VTD at SSAB / US and TISCO / China,whereas the TISCO plant is the biggest VOD worldwide,and also the RH at CSA / Brazil and Zhangjiagang/China.An outlook will be given on the future of the vacuum treatment philosophy as a result of the current market trends.
