contexte et objectifs

The European Oxygen Steelmaking Conference (EOSC) series is organised in turn by one of the European Metallurgical Societies and Associations. As such it represents the most comprehensive expert knowledge in steelmaking. After 21 years, the Conference will be organized once again in Italy in Apulia. The Conference will present the state of the art technologies and developments and discuss technology issues related to the specific requirements of oxygen steelmaking. The Conference will focus on the latest development in primary steelmaking, ladle metallurgy, plant operation experience, automotive and on-line process analyses, improving steel quality and environmental protection. Equipment suppliers will present their relevant products and latest technologies in the exhibition area.

The following general topics will be involved in the program of EOSC 2018, focused on Oxygen Steelmaking:

• • Charge materials and their preparation
  • Primary steelmaking
  • Ladle metallurgy (including AOD and VOD)
  • Plant operation experiences
  • Refractory systems
  • Maintenance and Engineering aspects
  • By-products, recycling and environment
  • Automation and on-line process analysis, process integration
  • Simulation and modelling
  • Productivity aspects and logistics
  • Improving steel quality
  • Fundamentals of oxygen steelmaking
  • Societal impacts of ore based steelmaking
  • Circulation of Fe-units
  • Revampings and new installations
