Ori Martin Revamping with New Consteel Evolution® and a Tenova iRecovery System
10/15/2014 - A new Consteel® Evolution combined with a Tenova iRecovery system will guarantee Ori Martin a reduction in the consumption to the lowest level while contributing district heating to the local community.
Ori Martin is revamping the first European Consteel, installed in Brescia, Italy, in 1998, which is still operating with a high level of performances today. After 16 years of continuous and successful operation, the feeding system for the EAF will be substituted with a new Consteel Evolution® that will increase flexibility, improve quality and reduce consumption.
The new Consteel Evolution will be combined with a Tenova iRecovery system, able to recover the thermal energy present in the dirty fume coming from the EAF and generate steam.
Tenova’s new iRecovery system will deliver thermal energy to the Italian city of Brescia heat district grid during winter time (10 MW) and will feed an ORC turbo-generator to produce electric energy for Ori Martin’s internal use. The steel plant will save on fuel consumption with a consequent reduction in CO2 emissions of approximately 10,000 metric tons per year. The implementation of service by new the system is planned for the 2015–16 season.
Ori Martin’s core business for many years has been the production of special steels for mechanical engineering, and, in particular, for the automotive sector. The research for even more detailed and qualitative market niches and the specialization in steels that more than adequately meet the demand of the European automotive industry, have enabled Ori Martin to offer more than 200 different types of steel.
Tenova is a worldwide supplier of advanced technologies, products and services for the metals and mining & mineral industries. With about 4,800 people, Tenova operates through more than 30 companies located in 26 countries on 5 continents.
