EAFD (Electric Arc Furnace Dust) is considered as pernicious pollutant, assigned hazardous waste. Since this dust is a by-product of industry, it contains valuable metals such as Fe, Zn, Ni, Cu which can be turned into resources by recycling process. In this study, hydrometallurgical process was applied to recover Zn from Electric Arc Furnace Dusts. The result showed 95% Zn recovery at 3M $H_2SO_4$, Solids/Liquid ratio 1:2 and aeration of 1.8L/min for 2hr. However there was 80% Zn recovery at lower $H_2SO_4$ concentration apply for pilot scale plant.

This paper deals with a powerful countermeasure for power quality problems caused by the operation of electrical arc furnace in bulk power systems. The rapid active load fluctuations of electrical arc furnace could produce several problems such as voltage flicker and active power oscillations. The typical methods using only the reactive power compensation have their own limitation in solving the power quality problems caused by active load variations. The coordination of both active and reactive power compensation is required to solve the power quality problems. This paper focuses on the impacts and the dynamic phenomena caused by the active load fluctuation. This paper proposes the optimal algorithm for the active power compensation based on the function of 1(n ratio and the concepts for the active power compensation. The results from a case study show that the proposed methods can be a practical tool for the power quality problems in power systems.

As the shortage of concrete aggregates is intensifying, the development of alternative resources is urgent. As the amount of steel slag increases year by year, attempts are being made to recycle slag into high-value-added products in order to develop an efficient resource recycling industry based on slag and to obtain economic benefits. However, the use of electric arc furnace oxidizing slag (EOS) as building materials is practically limited because it contains unstable materials. In this paper, physical properties of concrete were evaluated by using electric arc furnace slag aggregate. It has been produced with two levels of general strength area W / C 45% and high strength area W / C 30%. Fresh concrete has been tested in air content, flow and slump, unit weight. The properties of the cured concrete were investigated by compressive strength, bending strength and unit volume weight. As a result of this study, strength of concrete increased with increasing EOS aggregate mixture.

The causes of concrete shrinkage are very diverse, in particular, aggregates impact the characteristics of shrinkage in concrete by constraining the shrinkage of cement paste. Meanwhile, owing to the lack of natural aggregate, various alternative aggregates are being developed, and their application in concrete also becomes more diverse. This study aimed to experimentally evaluate the drying and autogenous shrinkage in concrete that was composed of electric arc furnace slag as coarse aggregates. And, the results were compared with prediction models. From the results, the application of electric arc furnace slag can reduce the drying and autogenous shrinkage. In particular, autogenous shrinkage is greatly decreased. The predictions using GL2000 for drying shrinkage and Tazawa model for autogenous shrinkage were similar to the experimental results. However, the most prediction models do not consider the impact of aggregates, hence, the new prediction model should be developed or improved.

Electric arc furnace slag is made in ironworks during steel refining, it is been increasing chemical and physical resistibility using ageing method of unstable state of melting steel slag for using concrete's fine aggregates. Which is been changing stable molecular structure of aggregates, it restrains moving of ion and molecule. In Korea, KS F 4571 has been prepared for using the electric arc furnace slag to concrete aggregates. In this study, Electric arc furnace slag is used in the PMC(Polymer Modified Concrete) which is applied a bridge pavement of rehabilitation, largely. In that case, this study evaluates the structural safety about increasing the specific weight. The 4-type bridges(RC slab bridge, RC rigid-frame bridge, PSC Beam bridge, Steel box girder bridge) pavement's increasing the total dead load is in 1 ~ 2%. Design moments in a load combination are increased less then 2%. safety factor is decreased less than 3%. Therefore, the structural safety has no problem for applying the electric arc furnace slag within PMC in bridge.

In this paper, we propose an array sensing detection method for smelting of submerged arc furnaces (SAF) based on electromagnetic radiation. AC magnetic field generated by electrode currents and molten currents in the furnace is reflected outside of the furnace. According to the spatial distribution of electromagnetic field a radiation model of SAF is built. We design a 3D magnetic field sensing array system in order to collect the magnetic field information. Through the collected information, the current distribution characteristics of SAF are described and the key parameters of smelting are obtained. Theoretical simulation and field test show that the curves acquired by the sensing array can accurately reflect the information of the relative displacement when the relative displacement between the array and electrode is 10 cm. Compared with the detection method of 3D single point, the proposed array sensing method of magnetic field obtains better results in terms of real-time and accuracy, and has good practical value for industrial measurement.

There is a potential usability of electric arc furnace(EAF) dust produced during the iron manufacturing process as a recycled resource, because valuable materials such as Zn, Pb and Fe are contained in it. In this study, metallic Zn was recycled from the fine electric arc furnace dust by a solid state reduction method using carbon at relatively low temperature. It was possible to recover metallic zinc by using of high vapour pressure of zinc with this reduction method. The feasibility of recycled zinc for cold bonded pellet(CBP) was investigated. The main composition of EAF dust were franklinite(ZnFe$_2$O$_4$), magnetite(Fe$_3$O$_4$) and zincite(ZnO), and Pb and Cl were completely removed by a heat treatment in oxidation environment. The reduction ratio increased as the solid carbon content increased, and it increased with decreasing of dust particle size and increasing of compaction pressure due to a increase of contact area.

As the demand for super tall buildings is currently increased in domestic and foreign countries, some kinds of ultra-high strength concretes are being developed actively. Since the cross section of concrete becomes smaller thanks to such kinds of ultra-high strength concretes, the concrete structures can be much bigger, more gigantic and much ultra-high. And as another benefit which is generated thanks to the enhancement of the durability performance, the maintenance expenses are also saved. However, since low W/B ultra-high concrete has a high possibility that many cracks can occur in the initial period due to the self-shrinkage caused by the self-desiccation as one of the blending characteristics, the problem becomes bigger by influencing the safety of a structure. Therefore, in this study, it is intended to analyze the effects of substituting some limestone-based ultra-high strength mortar with electric arc furnace oxidizing slag fine aggregates on the self-shrinkage of mortar.

The effect of coating temperature with regard to surface properties of TiN-coated layer on hard metal(WC-Co) are experimentally investigated. Hardness, surface roughness, TiN coating thickness and adsorption force were measured in order to evaluate the effect of coating temperature. The two-way ANOVA method is used in order to evaluate the experimental data. In AIP processing, It is concluded that the furnace temperature in the range of $400^{\circ}C\~500^{\circ}C$ affected to a little increasing the number of production with the coating temperature.
