Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) Expansion Project

Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) Expansion Project
Client: SteelTech Industries
Location: Birmingham, United Kingdom
Industry: Steel Manufacturing

Description

SteelTech Industries approached CoreFlow EPC to expand their existing electric arc furnace capacity to meet growing demand for high-quality steel products. The project involved designing and constructing a state-of-the-art 150-ton EAF facility with advanced automation systems.

Key Challenges:

  • Limited space for expansion within existing facility
  • Maintaining production during construction
  • Meeting strict environmental regulations
  • Integrating with legacy systems

Solution Delivered:

  • Modular design approach to minimize downtime
  • Advanced dust collection and emission control systems
  • Automated charging system with robotic material handling
  • Energy recovery systems reducing operating costs by 25%

Results: The project was completed on schedule and 5% under budget, increasing production capacity by 60% while reducing energy consumption per ton of steel by 30%.
