EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
UNDP in association with Australian Aid Programme & Ministry of Steel, Government of
India is implementing a project titled “Upscaling energy efficient production in small
scale steel industry in India”. The objective of this project, which was launched in July
2013, is to scale-up adoption of energy efficient technologies in small scale steel
industry in India. In line with project’s continuous endeavor to provide inputs on energy
conservation, a typical design of re-heating furnace, based on pulverized coal as fuel,
was developed.
3
As compared to conventional furnace oil fired furnace, this energy efficient furnace
would ensure saving of atleast 8 l/t in specific furnace oil consumption. And such saving
is projected by incorporating various energy conservation measures in re-heating
furnace viz. installation of PID controller system for air fuel control ratio in soaking zone
& heating zone-1 and on-off control system in heating zone-2, waste heating recovery
system, optimum refractory & insulation etc. Overall investment for installing energy
efficient furnace is arrived at by considering prevailing market rates for various
equipment, structural steel & civil works. It is estimated that the investment for re-
heating furnace can be recovered in 26 months and such calculation is done by
considering difference in specific fuel consumption of conventional furnace & energy
efficient furnace.

1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background:
UNDP in association with Australian Aid Programme & Ministry of Steel,
Government of India is implementing a project titled “Upscaling energy efficient
production in small scale steel industry in India”. The objective of this project, which
was launched in July 2013, is to scale-up adoption of energy efficient technologies in
small scale steel industry in India.
The project seeks to facilitate the diffusion of energy efficient low carbon
technologies in the Steel Re-rolling Mill (SRRM) sector to bring down end-use energy
level, improve productivity and cost competitiveness, and to reduce associated
emissions of Green-House Gases (GHG) and related pollutant levels. There exists
enormous potential for energy efficiency measures in the existing units and the new
units. Almost 70% of the energy (thermal energy) is consumed in re-heating furnace.
Thus the re-heating furnace forms the key area for energy efficiency intervention in a
typical SRRM unit.
Considering a large potential for energy conservation in the SRRM sector, the
project has identified a number of energy efficient technology options & packages,
suitable for implementation in the small and medium scale SRRM sector. One of the core
objectives of this project is to create an access for adopting energy efficient technologies
for the SRRM units.

into consideration, certain typical operational practices prevailing in the SRRM sector.
The basic design data considered are as below:
c. Material - MS Grades
100X100 15.5 1,130 15.0 850 to 1,050 1,150 to 1,250 1,230 to 1,240
100X100 18.5 1,117 25.6 850 to 1,050 1,150 to 1,250 1,230 to 1,240
125X125 15.5 1,130 21.6 850 to 1,050 1,150 to 1,250 1,230 to 1,240
1 125X125 18.5 1,101 38.0 850 to 1,050 1,150 to 1,250 1,230 to 1,240

The furnace can also be used for heating of alloy and SS grades. However, in such
case production capacity will be lower.
1. Total heat load as per the heat balance: 510 kg/h of furnace oil
7
Sl. No. Parameter
3. No. of burners:
Soaking zone: 4 (Size: 45 l/h )
Heating zone-1: 6 (Size: 40 l/h )
Heating zone-2: 4 (Size: 40 l/h )
5. Types of burners: IIP ENCON Film burners have been considered which
works on low excess air with a large turn down ratio. They have a long and
bushy flame which is most suited to such applications. In general, a saving of
5%-10% in such applications can be achieved over the normal LAP burners
Pipelines: Pipelines for supply of combustion air are designed with sufficient
reserve capacity so that pressure drop will meet the blower discharge

capacity. Pipeline layout is done for easy access to orifices and control valves.
The dimensions for various pipelines are as follows
Air pipeline (main header): 600 NB
Air pipeline (branch pipes for burners): 1. soaking zone: 300 NB
2. heating zone-1: 350 NB
3. heating zone-2: 250 NB
Oil pipeline (main header): 40 NB
Oil Pipeline (branch pipes for burners): 25 NB
8. Flue system: Exhaust system for evacuating flue gases is designed taking
into account the hydraulic resistance of the flue path, as envisaged in the
general layout.
Flue port is taken from the roof and the flue line will be above the ground

Sl. No. Parameter
level. The flue duct before the recuperator is insulated with ceramic fibre
board inside for minimizing heat loss.
For 15 tph furnace, the dimensions of flue duct is :
Circular 1,250 mm Dia
The chimney has been designed considering pollution control norms’. The
broad dimensions of the chimney are as follows:
Height : 33,000 mm; Dia:1,000 mm
10. Refractory & insulation: Refractory & insulations forms a major role in
minimizing heat losses from the side walls and roof. An optimum refractory
& insulation pattern has been suggested to minimize the heat loss due to
radiation.
High temperature zones (soaking & heating zones): For the soaking and
heating zone sidewalls, a refractory lining consisting of 230 mm thick H.H.D.
firebricks (60% Alumina) followed by 115 mm thick light weight firebricks
(hot face insulation) backed by 115 mm thick Mica insulation bricks (cold
face insulation) backed by 75 mm thick Calcium Silicate block insulation has
been considered.
Low temperature zones (Preheating Zone): For the pre-heating zone, 230
mm thick H.D. firebricks (50% Alumina) backed by 115 mm thick light
weight firebricks (hot face insulation) backed by 115 mm thick Mica
insulation bricks (cold face insulation) backed by 75 mm thick Calcium
Silicate block insulation has been considered.
Roof: For the re-heating furnace roof, high alumina firebricks 58% Al2O3 340
mm for anchored bricks and 225 mm for unanchored bricks partly backed by
65 mm thick Ceramic fiber blanket (128 kg/m³), 50 mm thick insulation
castable and 50 mm thick Calcium Silicate block insulation has been
considered.

Sl. No. Parameter
11. Control system: The furnace has been provided with controls for the
following.
1. Temperature control for all the three zones
2. Air to fuel ratio control.
3. Furnace pressure control
The furnace has been designed with three control zones. All the three zones
will be with controls for temperature and air to fuel ratio. The control
strategy is on proportionate basis for soaking zone and heating zone 1. For
the heating zone 2, ON-OFF control strategy has been used. All the burners of
this zone will be either in full firing mode or will be in totally off mode. By
this firing strategy, cost will be minimized. The furnace has been provided
with pressure control. All the instrumentation system will be located in a
separate control room.
10
● Furnace pressure control has been envisaged for elimination of ingress of
cold air into the furnace. Ingress of cold air not only cools down the
furnace leading to higher fuel firing but also damages various equipments.
● Chimney height is selected for evacuating all the flue gases through the
flue line with recuperator. This will ensure preheating of combustion air
to the designed level of 400 OC.
Optimum refractories and insulation has been suggested to minimize the
radiation heat loss from the side walls and roof.
High efficiency U-tube type cross-flow metallic recuperator has been
suggested to maximize the combustion pre-heat temperature thus leading
to optimum fuel consumption.
4. COST CONSIDERATION
The furnace cost consideration and its difference vis-à-vis a typical re-heating
furnace of similar capacity is provided below:
(i) Control System: Expenditure towards control system will be about Rs
20.0 lakhs. Benefits of this facility are (a) reduction of fuel consumption
by about Rs 15.5 lakhs and (b) reduction of burning losses about Rs 20.0
lakhs annually.
(ii) Better insulation of walls will lead reduction of heat losses through walls
by about 1.25% of heat input. This reduction will lead to a benefit of Rs
9.0 lakhs annually. Additional cost of 75mm thick calcium silicate
required for reducing heat losses through walls will be Rs 0.65 lakhs.
(iii) Through high performance recuperator air preheat temperature can be
increased by about 150 OC. This increase in air preheat temperature can
be realized by an investment of Rs 8.0 lakhs, which is likely to give a
benefit of Rs 40.0 lakhs.
The total cost will of the energy efficient re-heating furnace will come to approx.
Rs 1.85 crore.
5. PERFORMANCE INDICATORS AND PAY-BACK
On successful operations the furnace will be rated to produce within 10% of its rated
capacity.
The specific fuel consumptions shall be within 32 l/t of steel heated,
during normal operation of the furnace.
The availability of the furnace will be over 90%.
The hearth life will be more than 2 years and the roof life will be around 3
years.
Scale losses shall be less than 1.5% in ingots and 1.25% in billets.
11
Compared to typical furnace, the saving potential envisaged for the energy
efficient furnace is approximately 20%. Considering specific fuel
consumption of 40 l/t in a typical furnace, conversion to energy efficient
furnace will lead to a saving of 8 l/t.
