Thermo-chemical model for blast furnace process control with the prediction of carbon consumption

The operational stability of a complex process such as the blast furnace is under constant threat owing to variation in the quality of raw materials as well as other operating conditions. Significant cost reductions can be achieved with adequate control of this process. Hence, mathematical models ha...
