  • Patent number: 11767810
    Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to provide a trigeneration system using dimethyl ether (DME), wherein the system produces electricity, controls heating and cooling, and supplies carbon dioxide as a fertilizer by driving a DME engine by using, as a raw material, DME which is clean fuel. A trigeneration system using DME according to the present invention may comprise: a DME tank in which DME fuel is stored; a DME engine driven by means of the DME fuel as a raw material; a DME fuel supply unit for supplying the DME fuel stored in the DME tank to the DME engine; a treatment unit connected to an exhaust line for discharging exhaust gas from the DME engine, so as to treat harmful components of the exhaust gas; a power generation unit for producing electricity by means of a driving force of the DME engine; and a cooling and heating unit for supplying or collecting heat by means of the driving force of the DME engine.

  • Patent number: 8535552
    Abstract: A method for evaluating center segregation of a continuous cast slab is provided. The method of the present invention includes (A) creating a center segregation image of a slab using an etching solution comprising a picric acid (C6H3N3O7), a cupric chloride (CuCl2), sodium laurylbenzenesulfonate (C18H29SO3Na) and the remainder of distilled water; and (B) evaluating the center segregation of a slab by scanning the image and applying the following Formula. The method creates an image of center segregation even for low-carbon steel having carbon (C) in an amount of 0.04 wt % or less as well as ultra low-sulfur steel having sulfur (S) in an amount of 50 ppm or less.

  • Patent number: 8220525
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method of predicting surface quality of a thin slab hot rolled coil. The method includes calculating the Cu equivalent (Cu eq.) of molten steel, applying the calculated Cu equivalent of the molten steel into an equation: 120×(Cu equivalent)2?6×(Cu equivalent) to calculate a surface crack index, and predicting the generation of surface defect of the thin slab hot rolled coil by the surface crack index. A method of producing the thin slab hot rolled coil using the same is also provided. The surface crack defect of the thin slab hot rolled coil can be predicted by calculating the Cu equivalent of the molten steel, and thus a thin slab which meets the quality standard demanded by a consumer can be provided, and this results in increased productivity and product reliability.
