Tenova Core to Revamp EAF at Ivaco Rolling Mills
Jun. 10, 2010 Tenova Core has been contracted to revamp the 75-ton electric arc furnace at Ivaco’s steelmaking facility in L’Orignal, Ontario.
The project features a new upper shell and new lower shell that will be designed to increase the actual scrap charging volume and optimize the positioning of the existing burners and chemical injection system. The new shell structures will also be designed to fit the existing EAF tilt platform.
The shell structures will be fabricated at the Tenova fabrication facility. An upgraded water-cooled piping and hose system is also part of the EAF revamp project.
Installation will take place during a future planned maintenance outage.
