Tenova’s NextGen® System will provide enhanced EAF efficiency, real-time monitoring, and control capabilities.
Tenova Goodfellow Inc. was contracted by leading Korean steelmaker Dongkuk Steel Mill Co. Ltd. for the supply and installation of Tenova’s NextGen® System at their Incheon Plant in Dong-gu, Incheon, Republic of Korea.
The NextGen® System, designed for Dongkuk Steel's 120-ton AC shaft furnace, features advanced hardware and temperature sensors for off-gas measurement, which include two sampling stations and a central cabinet.
This system, characterized by its hybrid laser/extractive off-gas analysis, provides quicker analytical response times and a comprehensive range of process analyses, monitoring CO, H2O, CO2, O2, and H2. This enables operators to conduct real-time monitoring and control, reducing operational risks and enhancing production efficiency. In addition, the system's low maintenance requirements contribute to cost savings in both hardware and installation.
