    Wereldwijde staalvraag stijgt in 2019

    ArcelorMittal 13:43
    20,30 +0,16 (+0,79%)

    BRUSSEL (AFN) - De wereldwijde vraag naar staal neemt dit jaar naar verwachting met 1,3 procent toe tot 1,735 miljard ton. Dat meldde brancheorganisatie World Steel Association. In 2018 was nog sprake van een groei met 2,1 procent.

    Volgens de organisatie hangt de minder sterke vraag samen met de afzwakkende wereldeconomie, met name de minder grote vraag in China. Er zijn nog verschillende risico's rond de voorspellingen voor de staalmarkt zoals de onzekerheden rond handel en onrust op de financiële markten.

    Voor 2020 rekent de World Steel Association op een toename van de vraag met 1 procent tot 1,752 miljard ton.

    ArcelorMittal Kryvyi Rih began repairs of DP-6 gas cleaning system

    ArcelorMittal Kryvyi Rih conducted the first major repair of environmental equipment this year the blast furnace number 6 gas cleaning unit. Its cost amounted to 635 thousand hryvnia. About 2 million USD was saved on the services of contractors through the implementation of a significant part of the work of its repair staff. Part of the parts was manufactured by the Foundry-Mechanical Plant a subsidiary repair company ArcelorMittal Kryvyi Rih. The gas cleaning plant is an impressive structure with a height of over 25 meters, a complex set of equipment, pipelines, various equipment and metal structures, shut-off control valves. The diameter of the duct is from 200 to 2700 meters. The scale of the structure can be judged by the volume of work performed. Thus, the scrubber irrigation nozzles, Venturi pipes, and the throttle group were replaced, a revision was made and partial replacement of the main valves and electrical networks of the gas cleaning complex was made. 45 new irrigation beams (pipes) were installed, an audit of all 24 shaking mechanisms of the collecting and corona electrodes was carried out, and half of the total number of electrodes of electric fields was checked and cleaned (the length of each electrode is 8 meters). In addition, work was done on gas-cleaning equipment and systems at the foundry yard and the bunker room of blast furnace No. 6 during its shutdown.

    Thus, the parameters of GOU performance for the purification of exhaust gases from DP-6 were restored, as a result of which the environmental impact will be reduced.

    This year, ArcelorMittal Kryvyi Rih will also perform a number of other major repairs to maintain the efficiency and reliability of environmental equipment, eliminating various risks
    Gas cleaning two-steel steelmaking unit number 6
    Charcoal equipment GOU converter number 5
    Gas cleaning from the ladle furnace and the ferroalloy bunker in the continuous casting section of steel No 1
    GOU equipment in the framework of the reconstruction of the limestone kiln No 3
    Replacement of the water supply section of the water supply from pump station No 9 to the rolling shop No 3.

    Drones are taking off at ArcelorMittal Burns Harbor

    Drones were originally invented for military use, but since the first remote-controlled aircraft took flight, people have discovered millions of creative ways from practical to pure fun to use these devices. In the steel industry, drone technology has been “taking off,” and at ArcelorMittal, drones have completely changed how we approach certain technical challenges. Within the last five years, a number of individual ArcelorMittal plants started experimenting with drones. In some cases, drones equipped with cameras were first used to help map a facility’s geographic footprint. In others, drones were employed to be able to see, or visually inspect, rooftops where it was difficult or dangerous to send a person. As our facilities started to uncover the power of this technology, a community and knowledge-base began to form. Last year, a formal drone network group was established and is leading efforts to maximize this innovative technology to make our business safer, more efficient, and more cost-effective.

    Led by Chris Mathews, area manager of IT operations at AM/NS Calvert, and Mr Larry Fabina, manager of continuous improvement at ArcelorMittal Burns Harbor, the network now has 35 members from 32 ArcelorMittal facilities worldwide, including many in the US.

    Mr Fabina said that “This technology is evolving quickly, and we have a lot of expertise throughout our company. ArcelorMittal values learning and leadership and that’s what the network is about. Drones have the potential to help transform our industry and how we do business. We want to be on the cutting-edge of that, so we bring people together to learn and share best practices.”

    The list of ways our plants are utilizing drones currently is extensive: conducting inspections, mapping and surveying, counting inventory, monitoring utilities and more. But this isn’t just about using a fun new gadget. Drones can safely go where people can’t, creating a safety benefit. Drones can help detect equipment failures or weaknesses, preventing expensive repairs. And drones can accomplish some tasks in record time, saving not just valuable time, but effort and money.

    Mr Mathews gave an example of a drone application at AM/NS Calvert that has achieved all of these benefits: “There are important tasks, like furnace inspections, that can take days, even up to a week, to do safely because they involve erecting scaffolding, managing the risks of working in a confined space, etc. With a drone, we can accomplish the same task in only 8 or 9 hours. The drone flies in, collects the data and video footage we need, and then our team can analyze the video from a safe position and plan what maintenance work needs to be done in the next scheduled outage.”

    Although ArcelorMittal is leading the steel industry in strategically using drone technology, Mr Fabina says we are just scratching the surface on the power of drones.

    He added that “We want to continue to exploit the power of drone technology. We have successfully taken the first steps using this technology as a tool to acquire data and information in a safe and reliable manner, which is a huge step. The next step is to further streamline not only how we use drones to acquire information but also how we interpret and analyze that information. Integrating drones with other technologies like LIDAR, artificial intelligence and augmented analytics is the next frontier.”

    Some people are afraid of drones, robots and other automated technologies, worrying they will they take the place of humans. But Henry Cuevas, senior project engineer in the high energy group at ArcelorMittal Cleveland, argues the opposite. “One of the best advantages of our drone program is the human factor. We are protecting the safety of our workers. Plus, our employees are excited and motivated by how our centuries-old industry is using new technologies to be better.”

    Ahead of schedule! Arch segments at the new ArcelorMittal steel shelters in Taranto

    The third arch in the Mineral Park superstructure was erected 10 days ahead of schedule – on 5 April! This structure will play a crucial role in limiting the dispersion of dust towards the city, particularly in the Tamburi district. The minerals present in the primary parks are due to be covered by the end of 2019 – almost 19 months ahead of the deadline set by the Prime Minister’s decree of September 2017. The coverage of the mineral parks is not only one of the most important interventions required by the Integrated Environmental Authority, but also part of the most ambitious environmental plan ever with a total goal of 1.15 billion Euro in investments by 2023, making Taranto the most advanced facility in Europe.

    In January 2019, the first arch segment of the new ArcelorMittal, previously the ILVA metallurgical plant, steel shelters in Taranto, Italy were erected. Each segment is composed of six of a total 51 huge arch trusses that will form the 80m high, 254 m wide, and 700 m long cover structure which is required for the environmental containment of the Mineral Park. Heavy plates from our Taranto mill were used for the fabrication of the welded tubes and trusses.

    The assembled steel will be transported to its final position using dedicated rollers, as demonstrated in the construction process shown in the following video. This challenging work is being carried out under the supervision of SWS Engineering's on-site team & Cimolai, the steel fabricator and erector. For a complete visualisation of the process, take a look at this video:
