Abstract
In this study, the power basic units to produce cast iron by using the press and shredded scrap are compared in 16t/h low-frequency induction melting furnace. Charging the shredded scrap instead of the press scrap was confirmed that the power basic unit is improved by about 5%. The energy characteristics according to the shape and size of scrap steel and the effect of the furnace size were investigated. Finally, the strategy to improve the utilization of this technology was proposed.
