  • Patent number: 11885565
    Abstract: To provide a method with which it is possible to ascertain a gas concentration in a furnace rapidly, and to charge an amount of fuel and/or oxygen corresponding to the state within the furnace, and with which it is possible to reduce the device maintenance load. In order to solve the abovementioned problem, this method for analyzing components contained in flue exhaust gas of a furnace includes: a sampling step of collecting a portion of the flue exhaust gas from a flue; a dust removal step of using a centrifugal dust collecting device to separate out dust in the flue exhaust gas collected in the sampling step, to yield an analysis gas; a measuring step of measuring components in the analysis gas to obtain the concentration of carbon monoxide in the analysis gas; and an analysis gas discharging step of causing the analysis gas to be sucked by an ejector.

  • Publication number: 20210033341
    Abstract: To provide a furnace control system which can predict production of flammable gases produced inside a furnace during melting, incineration, and fusion batch processes and effectively carry out furnace combustion control on the basis of said prediction results in order to reduce the conventional problem of time lag. A furnace control system has a flammable gas quantity of state calculation unit 12 which calculates a flammable gas quantity of state corresponding to prediction factor data using a quantity of state estimation model for flammable gas originating in volatile organic compounds produced using intelligent information processing technology using as learning data past data relating to furnaces, data relating to materials, and data relating to exhaust gases, and a combustion control unit 11 which controls furnace combustion on the basis of the flammable gas quantity of state calculated by the flammable gas quantity of state calculation unit 12.
