Operators within the metals industry are always striving to optimise the performance of their production facilities, in an effort to meet the demand of the industry and reduce their costs in order to generate sustainable economic benefit and maintain positions as leaders in their markets. Solutions providers seek to use their knowledge, expertise and technologies to transform production processes, from their experience in the ferrous and non-ferrous metals industries to deliver transforming materials handling and process control solutions. Industrial production processes require an accurate, stable and consistent feed of raw materials to function efficiently. Generally, the more accurate and consistent the raw material feed, the more stable the process reaction, often with a corresponding increase in efficiency and throughput and improved metal quality. A stable process can also reduce the loading on downstream equipment. From mine to refinery, environmentally supportive and sustainable solutions have enabled materials to be charged, inventory to be controlled and processes to be transformed. This paper will discuss and highlight with examples the ways in which solutions improve performance, delivering tight temperature and metal control, improved environmental and operational performance and reduced labour requirements redefining processes. Solutions screening, wet transfer, transport, fuelling, dry transfer, improving furnaces: Bath, Blast, Shaft, TSL, QSL, PS Converter, Anode, and Fumers, EAF/SAF, Plasma. Weighing solutions delivering robust inventory and improving operator optimization. In today’s challenging economic environment the systems used for every stage of production from mine to market are important. Process environments demand high availability and long-term reliability. Improved environmental performance, tighter control enables the producer to improve economic performance and optimize manpower. This paper discusses some of the solutions delivered showing the truth of Schenck Process Solutions claim that ‘we make processes work’.
