A team of SmartMetallurgy experts will configure your EAF electrical modes, which allows:
1
To reduce electricity consumption by 30 kWh / ton or 30 mln kWh / year (with a production volume of 1 mln tons per year)
2
To reduce electrode consumption by 0.650 kg per ton or 650 tons of electrodes per year
3
To use cheaper alternative raw materials like slags with high iron content, which will reduce the budget for the purchase of scrap metal up to 5%

Frequently Asked Questions
- Why don’t manufacturers of metallurgical equipment like Danieli, Primetals, etc., provide the most energy-efficient technological profiles?Setting up profiles requires time and a high level of staff expertise. Equipment suppliers focus on earning revenue through equipment sales, not on fine-tuning furnaces to account for all the necessary parameters.
- "We are a large company with our own R&D center and experienced consultants. We've been told that our furnaces are already optimized."Our specialists have successfully improved the efficiency of EAF operations for both small-scale metallurgical enterprises and giants of the metallurgical industry.
Our client list includes companies such as:- NLMK (https://nlmk.com/en/) with a market capitalization of $7 billion as of the end of 2024.
- MMK (https://mmk.ru/en/) with a market capitalization of $3.6 billion.
