๐Ÿญ Exploring the Blast Furnace Process

The video script begins with a visit to a steel plant, focusing on the blast furnace operation. The plant produces approximately 3.6 million tons of steel annually, utilizing its coastal location to import raw materials like iron ore and coal. These materials are transformed into coke and then used in the blast furnace, where carbon reacts with iron ore to produce molten iron. The control room is introduced, highlighting the 24/7 operation and the significant cost and effort required for maintenance, such as re-lining the furnace every 15 years. Safety measures, including gas monitors, are also discussed. The tour continues to the blast furnace forecast, explaining the process of tapping molten iron and separating slag, before moving on to the triers where air and oxygen mixtures are forced into the furnace at high temperatures and pressures.

05:01

๐Ÿ”ง Transition from Iron to Steel Production

The script continues with the journey of molten iron from the blast furnace to the basic oxygen steel plant. Torpedoes, carrying 350 tons of molten iron, are emptied into ladles, which are then taken to a desulfurization station. Here, sulfur is removed from the iron using a lance with powdered reagents and nitrogen gas. The process involves mechanical scraping of slag and the addition of alloying components in the secondary steel-making area to create specific types of steel. The molten steel is then transported to the continuous caster, where it undergoes further processing to form solid bars or slabs.

10:03

๐Ÿ”ฉ Hot Rolling and Steel Production Details

The narrative shifts to the hot rolling process, where slabs of steel are heated in a furnace for about three hours before being rolled into thinner sheets. The host meets Steve, who guides the tour through the mill, explaining the machinery and processes involved in reducing the thickness and width of the steel slabs. The focus is on the efficiency of the operation, with automatic flame cutting heads cutting 10-meter lengths of steel, which are then sent for further processing. The importance of maintaining and replacing rollers due to wear is highlighted, as is the continuous monitoring and adjustment of the steel's temperature throughout the process.

sponsor at shipstation.com forward slash

play00:04

Forge welcome back we are in way

play00:11

who's gonna be our tour guide for the

play00:14

day we're outside the blast furnace how

play00:16

many million tons of steel do you guys

play00:18

make each year so around 3.6 million

play00:20

tons a year at the moment so because

play00:21

this plant is right at the sea they can

play00:24

ship in a huge amount of their raw

play00:26

materials and that includes iron ore and

play00:29

coal that then gets turned into Coke a

play00:32

coking plant and here in the blast

play00:34

furnace the carbon from the coke is

play00:36

reacting with the oxygen in the iron ore

play00:39

getting rid of it turning it into iron

play00:42

which then runs down once tapped in its

play00:45

molten State into these Torpedoes

play00:48

carrying 350 tons of it at a time for it

play00:51

to be refined into steel so the first

play00:54

place we're going to is the control room

play00:56

for the blast furnaces so there's one

play00:58

control room two blast furnaces hey how

play01:00

are you yeah nice to see you

play01:03

[Music]

play01:05

goodness gracious yeah this is what I

play01:07

was talking about no Center that's the

play01:09

sort of man-made pellet man-made pellet

play01:11

sinter Coke there's our Coke I recognize

play01:14

that so from the old videos you know

play01:16

what Coke looks like then the iron ore

play01:18

can come centered like this it almost

play01:20

looks like clinker that you make in a

play01:22

Coke Forge but this is iron ore so it's

play01:24

a little bit porous they also have iron

play01:26

pellets but this is a more expensive

play01:28

option and so they're typically not

play01:30

using iron pellets you've got two desks

play01:32

here effectually so number four yeah

play01:35

number five so they're the two separate

play01:37

controls for the two separate blast

play01:38

furnaces so you have a specialist

play01:40

operator on each furnace and then at the

play01:44

back to sq you have a process section

play01:45

you just saw he oversees the operation

play01:48

essentially and this is never ending

play01:50

does this ever shut down for the day or

play01:53

is it a 24 hour yes 24 hours the only

play01:56

time you ever take furnace off if you're

play01:57

going to rebuild it or realign it how

play01:59

often do you have to re-line a furnace

play02:01

um well we've re-lined a partial reline

play02:04

of number five into 2018

play02:06

and that was after 15 years number fours

play02:09

was 2008 I believe but that's that's a

play02:12

significant I mean that's tens of

play02:14

millions of pounds of work to justify

play02:17

taking their Furniture completely yeah

play02:20

that was off for six months

play02:22

the orange thing that we're wearing

play02:24

right here is a gas monitor so you've

play02:26

got to have one when you're near all

play02:28

this stuff for the gases make sure that

play02:29

you're not gonna die but it beeps

play02:31

periodically so that's what you're

play02:33

hearing good to meet you mark where are

play02:35

we going now uh so we're going to go up

play02:37

to blast furnace forecast out this is

play02:39

our project

play02:41

how long have you worked here uh 17

play02:44

years now do you like it yeah I do those

play02:47

Hoppers are taking iron ore and Coke up

play02:50

to be put into the blast furnace

play02:56

foreign

play02:57

behind all this hot stuff is the blast

play03:00

furnace stack this is the drill that

play03:04

they use to tap it so this comes in with

play03:08

a drill bit drills a hole through the

play03:10

clay and releases all the molten iron it

play03:14

then flows through this channel in the

play03:16

ground

play03:17

back here

play03:19

into a hopper that looks like this and

play03:22

then this Hopper pulls it into train

play03:25

cars in Torpedoes 350 tons at a time for

play03:29

it to be sent off to be made into steel

play03:31

the scale of this is ridiculous the

play03:34

smell the heat in the air the sulfur it

play03:37

is lovely it's like being in a

play03:40

blacksmith workshop for the first time

play03:41

when I was 11 but the scale is just

play03:43

ridiculous so as the iron is tapped

play03:46

there is obviously slag with it they

play03:49

need to separate it so as it runs down

play03:51

there's a little partition because the

play03:53

swag is less dense it's at the top it

play03:57

then gets sent off to the side when it's

play03:59

gathered the iron runs underneath

play04:02

through these two channels and you can

play04:04

see it glowing underneath gonna now go

play04:07

see the triers this is where they're

play04:08

pumping in a mixture of air and oxygen

play04:11

at 2 000 degrees

play04:13

[Applause]

play04:17

[Music]

play04:19

so now we get an idea of the scale of

play04:22

the blast furnace the diameter of it 32

play04:25

is a forcing hot air and oxygen into

play04:28

this thing what pressure have we got uh

play04:31

normally about three bar you see the

play04:33

scale of that one pipe out of 30. it's

play04:36

nuts and all of this has to be water

play04:39

cooled so it doesn't overheat so there's

play04:41

pipes everywhere here you've got coal

play04:44

dust being injected in with the hot air

play04:46

and oxygen incredible so the Tria is

play04:49

made of 100 copper and it sits in inside

play04:53

the Blaster and it's at its hottest

play04:55

point this is where that hot air and

play04:56

oxygen mix is forced through so they've

play04:58

got these gigantic damage to pipes

play05:00

forcing water through the thing because

play05:03

it is inside the furnace yet somehow

play05:06

doesn't melt so a question I had was why

play05:08

copper when copper has a lower melting

play05:10

point than steel purely because the

play05:12

conductivity level of copper in

play05:13

comparison to other Steels so it would

play05:15

the water cooling can take the heat out

play05:18

of the copper easier than steel or iron

play05:20

absolutely that's so neat thank you both

play05:23

for showing us the blast furnace we are

play05:25

now going to head off to where the

play05:26

Torpedoes go and see the basic oxygen

play05:28

steel plant

play05:31

[Music]

play05:38

so through here is where the Torpedoes

play05:41

that come from the blast furnace are

play05:43

emptied out and there we go there are

play05:45

the rail cars and Torpedoes you see how

play05:48

hot the thing is so where is it tipped

play05:51

so the label will come down here the

play05:52

torpedo will tip over and pour the iron

play05:55

into the ladle then the crane will take

play05:56

the ladle up there to the

play05:58

desulfurization station so they

play06:00

desulfurize it by having a lance with

play06:03

some powdered reagents and nitrogen gas

play06:06

it flows in there and somehow there's no

play06:09

sulfur that's right

play06:11

self is gone no problems and after the

play06:14

deculfurizing they can then scrape off

play06:16

the slag while it's all molten there

play06:19

with a mechanically controlled arm from

play06:21

a control room so what is it that you do

play06:23

in this on this plan well I'm

play06:24

Operational Support okay look after the

play06:26

people on plant look after safety the

play06:29

environment and the fire precautions

play06:31

that are in place everyone goes home is

play06:33

that the way they come in how many years

play06:34

have you worked here 28 28 years and do

play06:38

you like it love it still still what a

play06:41

dream and every person that we've talked

play06:43

to feels the same way yeah it's in our

play06:45

blood still make it to no blood we've

play06:46

already spoken to one person whose

play06:48

father works here yes

play06:50

yeah my dad worked here for around 30

play06:52

years as well she worked in a Lambo and

play06:54

steel works just down the road

play06:55

unbelievable and I presume that a lot of

play06:58

your colleagues have again

play07:01

for generations of people that have

play07:03

worked here generations and generations

play07:05

we've got people who've got grandfathers

play07:07

and grandfathers fathers who worked here

play07:08

as well

play07:12

nobody's ever going to get the scale of

play07:13

this are they it just will not come

play07:15

across the arm on that Ladle has got to

play07:18

be what 20 foot long 15 20 foot long and

play07:22

up it goes like it's nothing 400 plus

play07:24

tons it's like the size of a house

play07:28

but it's filled with molten iron

play07:30

[Music]

play07:35

so this is all maintaining the ladles so

play07:38

every single time a ladles use they've

play07:40

got to send it back over to here

play07:42

replug it but every now and then they'll

play07:44

re-line them so take all the old bricks

play07:46

out and they'll put new bricks in and

play07:47

that's kind of done by hand doesn't it

play07:55

[Music]

play07:57

so back over on that side where you saw

play08:00

them messing around with the huge Ladle

play08:02

that's because they were pumping in the

play08:05

oxygen to get rid of the excess carbon

play08:07

to turn it into a bog standard kind of

play08:09

Steel they put some of the other

play08:11

alloying components in there but to make

play08:15

it exactly what they need it gets poured

play08:17

out into another ladle it goes

play08:19

underneath this over into this big Bay

play08:22

here and this is what they call their

play08:24

secondary steel making area where they

play08:27

add the final alloying components that

play08:29

they may need so say they need to make a

play08:32

5160 strip stock well they could get it

play08:36

set up here put the right amount in

play08:38

carbon the right amount of silicon

play08:39

that's as far as I understand

play08:41

[Music]

play08:46

so when the steel is mixed up right it

play08:50

gets transported over here to The

play08:52

Continuous Caster so that Ladle is full

play08:56

of molten steel the perfect alloy

play08:58

they're going to put it into this

play08:59

machine

play09:00

spin it round over to here

play09:03

and that slab in the ground has a hole

play09:06

and from the bottom of the ladle they're

play09:08

going to tap that molten steel through

play09:09

the hole it's going to go underground

play09:12

it's going to go through some water

play09:14

cooled copper molds to be formed into a

play09:17

solid bar a giant slab of the stuff so

play09:21

this is the tundish that moves

play09:22

underneath the ladle to collect the

play09:24

molten steel to then send it through the

play09:27

hole oh and it's all spinning

play09:30

goodness gracious me Ladle spins over on

play09:34

top of the tundish

play09:35

[Laughter]

play09:40

[Music]

play09:50

1560 degrees Celsius toasty so right

play09:54

here underground this is what the

play09:56

continuous Caster looks like there's

play09:58

water cooled rollers and there's a mold

play10:00

at the top it comes down then it comes

play10:02

out and looks like this

play10:06

foreign

play10:10

[Applause]

play10:12

and that must be 10 or 12 inches six

play10:17

four or five feet wide it is huge and as

play10:21

it is slowly pulled out down these

play10:24

rollers there's an automatic flame

play10:26

cutting head that cuts 10 meter lengths

play10:29

the 10 meter length is 30 tons which is

play10:33

all that they can manage it being for

play10:35

taking it for hot rolling and that's

play10:39

where we're going so here are some of

play10:40

the slabs that have come off the line

play10:42

you can see they're still probably 700

play10:45

800 degrees Celsius

play10:48

foreign

play10:51

[Music]

play10:55

Mill with Steve who's going to be

play10:57

showing us around we're very excited to

play10:59

see this because we get to see the hot

play11:01

steel at last that's the furnace the

play11:03

leaves go in

play11:04

let's pick the slab up drop it on the

play11:06

roller tables yeah oh my God what's the

play11:10

furnace in there so you can see the slab

play11:11

coming up and down it goes 30 tons of

play11:14

steel effortlessly

play11:17

and how many hours does a cold slab take

play11:21

to heat up those are those three hours

play11:23

normally three hours in there I think

play11:25

it's something like that oh yeah wow

play11:26

this is the HSB when the bar comes down

play11:29

you will stop in the Square engage there

play11:32

so the bar come down the Gaze will come

play11:34

in put the bar on Central and square it

play11:37

up as well

play11:39

again

play11:45

[Music]

play11:48

so this giant unit is sending the slabs

play11:52

back and forth pulling it down in size

play11:55

then they're sent down here to a coiling

play11:59

box to conserve space in the factory

play12:02

even when it's nice and thick they coil

play12:05

it up they're just unbelievable that has

play12:08

got to be 40 millimeter thick steel

play12:11

coiled and uncoiled almost effortlessly

play12:15

so once they uncoil it they are sending

play12:18

it through all these rolls every single

play12:22

one getting smaller controlling the

play12:24

thickness controlling the width to make

play12:27

the final product look Jamie another one

play12:29

getting coiled it is one after the other

play12:33

after the other unbelievable if we get

play12:36

to the end of the coil they cut it so

play12:38

they have a nice Square end

play12:41

oh my goodness gracious

play12:44

[Music]

play12:57

every two or three hours the rollers

play13:00

that are rolling to steal are so worn

play13:03

they need to be replaced so right here

play13:05

staged off to the side are fresh rollers

play13:09

well every two or three hours they've

play13:12

got to change them to do this the floor

play13:14

shifts hydraulic cylinders pick up the

play13:18

old rollers shove in the new ones and

play13:21

all seven stations have new rollers

play13:24

fitted in seven to eight minutes so as

play13:28

the metal comes out of those rollers

play13:30

down here

play13:32

they're continuously checking the

play13:34

temperature of the steel adjusting the

play13:37

spray as necessary so it's just right

play13:39

[Music]

play13:44

so that's where we were the steel strip

play13:46

comes back all the way out over here it

play13:49

gets coiled

play13:51

and then the coil looks like this and

play13:54

that exact coil is very possibly

play13:58

the same Billet of Steel that we saw

play14:01

being rolled just a few seconds ago

play14:03

several hundred meters all the way over

play14:06

there and that's the story of how steel

play14:09

gets made here in Great Britain and that

play14:13
