  • Patent number: 11994495
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method of detecting crack propagation in a wall of a metallurgical furnace by a detection unit. The detection unit is configured to extract one or more dominant frequency parameters from the corresponding reflected stress signal, and analysing, a phase from each dominant frequency parameters. The analysing of the phase comprises determines, one or more coefficients for each dominant frequency parameters. The detection unit then identifies, a dominant phase based on the corresponding one or more coefficients and selects a frequency relevant to a thickness parameter based on the dominant phase. The crack propagation in the wall of the metallurgical furnace is then detected based on the frequency relevant to the thickness parameter at each of the one or more locations. The present disclosure provides an accurate method for determining condition of refractory lining by elimination unwanted noise signals.

  • Publication number: 20230357905
    Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a method for producing high strength hot rolled steel. The method includes casting a steel slab of a composition, comprising in weight %: carbon (C) of about 0.45 wt. %-1.2 wt. %, manganese (Mn) of about 0.0-1.0 wt. %, silicon (Si) of about 0.0-0.5 wt. %, niobium (Nb) up-to 0.03 wt. %, sulphur (S) up-to 0.05 wt. % of S, phosphorous (P) up-to 0.05 wt. %, nitrogen (N) 0.002 wt. %-0.012 wt. % and balance being Iron (Fe) optionally along with incidental elements. The method also involves, heating, hot rolling, cooling, coiling the steel and retaining the steel at an ambient temperature to produce high strength hot rolled steel with 75-95% spheroid microstructure and 5-25% pearlite microstructure.

  • Patent number: 11242490
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for producing metallurgical coke from non-coking coal. The method comprising, densifying, the non-coking coal to form pellets. The densified pellets will be placed in a microwave oven within plurality of bricks and are subjected for pyrolysis. For carrying our pyrolysis, the pellets are carried out by heating, the pellets in the microwave oven at a predetermined temperature under an inert atmosphere at atmospheric pressure, and then the pellets are cooled in the microwave oven under the inert atmosphere. This process coverts non-coking coal to the metallurgical coke in a quicker time, and without use of any susceptors.
