Application of Electric Induction Melting Furnaces in Scrap Metal Recycling
2023-03-14
Electric induction melting furnaces is a kind of heating equipment, which is widely used in metal heat treatment, thermoforming, metal smelting, and other industries. Electric induction melting furnaces play an important role in melting scrap steel, scrap aluminum, scrap copper, and other materials and recycling the corresponding metals. Today, we will introduce to you the application of electric induction melting furnaces in scrap metal recycling. Recycling and reuse of ferrous metal scrap steel Recycling, smelting, and reusing scrap steel to produce steel (short-process steelmaking) can reduce mine waste by 97%, reduce air pollution by 86%, and reduce air pollution by 76% compared to steel obtained from mining and smelting (long-process steelmaking). It can reduce water pollution by 40%, save 90% of raw materials, and save 74% of energy. What are the sources of steel scrap in steel mills? The steel scrap produced in the process of steel products and industrial manufacturing accounts for about 20-25% of the total scrap steel, mainly including the trimmed head, trimmed tail, chips, scraps, etc. of steel materials. Various waste equipment, steel structural parts, “scrap” locomotives, vehicles, rails, automobiles, ships, tools, utensils, etc., also generate a large amount of “depreciation scrap”. The scrap steel above...
