Features: This book provides a systematic and comprehensive introduction and discussion on basic knowledge of energy saving, energy saving in sintering and blast furnace ironmaking processes, and process calculations. The book includes chapters on energy saving overview, sintering energy saving, blast furnace ironmaking energy saving, and ironmaking process calculations. The energy saving overview elaborates on the current status and trends of the iron and steel industry, the importance of energy saving, and its significance in enhancing the competitiveness of the iron and steel industry. It introduces the basic concepts and principles of energy saving. The sintering energy saving section discusses sintering technical and economic indicators, thermal balance, and the main approaches and directions for energy saving. The blast furnace ironmaking energy saving section covers blast furnace technical and economic indicators, energy utilization and thermal balance within the blast furnace, as well as energy saving approaches and directions. The ironmaking process calculations include sintering blending calculations, comprehensive blast furnace ironmaking calculations (blending calculations, material balance, and thermal balance), blast furnace startup blending calculations, and commonly used on-site operational calculations. The appendix lists relevant data for easy reference. This book provides steel and iron enterprises with relatively comprehensive and practical methods for reducing energy consumption and production costs, offering significant theoretical and practical reference value. It can serve as a reference book for undergraduate and graduate students majoring in iron and steel metallurgy at universities and colleges, as well as for engineering technicians engaged in production, research, design, and management in related fields.
