REFRAMAX EXECUTE ANOTHER LARGE SCALE PROJEC

Posted in 12/September/2016

With a consolidated performance in the implementation of major reforms in equipment in the steel sector, Reframax starts preparations to participate in the Reactivation of Blast Furnace 2 in Companhia Siderúrgica Nacional (CSN) in Volta Redonda / RJ.

 The first activity was cleaning the furnance side for the withdrawal of the remaining materials (tuyere, Ramp, Belly and Cuba). For this, the company innovated by using the safety outbreak, a non-explosive technology used in the blast furnace, thereby minimizing the risk of materials falling into the equipment.

SCOPE OF THIS CHALLENGING PROJECT: 60 DAYS OF WORKS

  • Cleaning of the furnace wall and removal of remaining charge of the Hearth;
  • Refractory concrete application (shot Crete) in body and throat armor blast furnace 2;
  • Partial repair cold in the refractory lining of the Regenerator 2.1 of Blast Furnace 2 using new project;
  • Refractory maintenance services in Regenerator 2.3 and hot air system of Blast Furnace 2.
