SUMMARY
1.1
There are two steel melting shops (SMS) at Bokaro Steel Plant viz. (SMSI) and SMS-II. SMS-I is based on BF BOF Ingot Casting route
producing ingot steels, whereas SMS-II is based on BF BOF
Continuous Casting route producing continuously cast slabs (CC slabs).
The ingots produced at SMS-I are further rolled in Slabbing Mill to produce
slabs. Both rolled slabs and CC slabs are finally sent to Hot Strip Mill
(HSM) to produce hot rolled (HR) coils.

BACKGROUND
2.1
INTRODUCTION
2.1.1
Bokaro Steel Plant (BSL) has two Steel Melting Shops (SMS) viz., SMS-I
and SMS-II. SMS-I produces steel through BOF converter Ingot Casting
route. There are five (5) BOF converters of 100/130 t capacity in SMS-I out
of which three (3) converters are in operation. The nameplate capacity of
SMS-I is 2.25 Mtpa of ingot steel.
2.1.2
The liquid steel produced in the BOF converters of SMS-I is cast into ingot
moulds to produce ingots. The ingots are sent to Slabbing Mill (through
soaking pits) for further rolling into slabs. The slabs produced in Slabbing
Mill are sent to Hot Strip Mill (HSM) for its further processing to produce
hot rolled coils / sheets. There are stripper yard, mould yard and mould
cleaning yards to prepare the moulds for ingot casting.
2.1.3
The SMS-I building consists of four (4) parallel bays i.e., teeming bay (AB
bay), ladle repair bay (BC bay), converter bay (CD bay) and charging bay
(DE bay). Two numbers of scrap yards adjoining the main building exist at
both the ends of the main building of SMS-I. The belt conveying system for
feeding bulk materials (fluxes) into the BOF converter is arranged over the
converter bay. Hot Metal mixers (Mixer Nos. 1 & 2) are situated at one end
of the shop between SMS-I and Blast Furnaces.
2.1.4
2.1.5
Operating the BOF converters with low specific volume brings with it
associated operational problems. The slopping and spitting creates
jamming of the tracks below the converter during transfer of slag & steel
and causes delay in production.
2.1.6
There is one rail track between mixer bay and converter bay to transfer the
Hot Metal (HM) in ladles. The HM is brought from mixers to converter bay
with the help of locomotive. Beyond the converter bay, the track slopes
down from working platform level of converter bay to ground level over a
ramp through which locomotives are sent for re-fuelling/repair. Slag pots
are transferred with the help of railway locomotive from the converter bay
to slag bay which is located at a distance of approximately 500 m from the
shop. It leads to higher cycle time and logistics problem which result in
higher tap to tap time.
2.1.7
The gas cooling and cleaning system of the converters are of open
combustion type, the converter gases being burnt completely in an open
hood, characterised by a large gap between the converter mouth and the
bottom of the hood to allow adequate excess air for ensuring complete
combustion of gases. Waste Heat Boilers (WHBs) have been installed to

After the scrap & HM has been charged, oxygen is blown at a rate of 300320 Nm3/min with the help of oxygen lance. Intermediate de-slagging is
carried out in most of the heats. The converter is blown for about 25
minutes to produce liquid steel of desired composition and temperature.
2.3.3
Corrective measures are taken in the form of re-blow for temperature &
analysis of liquid steel bath after completion of oxygen blowing. After this
the steel is tapped from the converters in 130 t ladles. Ferro-alloy and
deoxidisers are added into the ladle during teeming. Inert gas is purged
through the porous plug fitted at the bottom of the ladle (while the ladle is
placed on the transfer car) to rinse the liquid steel. The ladle with liquid
steel is transported to the teeming bay in steel transfer car. Teeming of the
liquid steel is carried out with the help of 180/50t teeming cranes. The slag
from the BOF converter is tapped into 16 m3 slag pots mounted on transfer
cars. These slag pots are hauled by locomotives to slag yard for dumping.
2.3.4
The ingots produced in SMS-I are sent to soaking pit of Slabbing Mill for
production of slabs, and subsequently slabs are sent to Hot Strip Mill
(HSM) for production of Hot Rolled (HR) coils. .

PRODUCTION OF SMS-I
Considering a tap to time of 60 minutes in BOF converter, the nameplate
capacity of the shop was fixed at 2.25 Mtpa of ingot steel. But the shop
has never been able to produce more than 2.0 Mt/year of ingot steel. In
fact, over the years, there has been gradual decline in production as can
be seen from the production figures of the last 4 years tabulated below:

The above target of 5.775 Mtpa was envisaged subject to fulfilment of the
following:
Since, the above facilities have not been incorporated under Phase-I
expansion, BSL has re-worked the hot metal production capacity to 4.8
Mtpa. It can be seen from the table given below, that a hot metal
production of 4.7 Mtpa was achieved in the year 2005-06, hence the
projected hot metal production capacity of 4.8 Mtpa was thought to be
possible to achieve with the existing facilities available in BF complex.

SELECTION OF ALTERNATIVE
In the FR for 10.75 Mtpa expansion of BSL submitted by CET in February
2012, one of the main schemes is modernisation of SMS-I. The overall
modernisation plan of SMS-I has now been conceived in two stages:
Stage-1: Phasing out of ingot casting and introduction of 100% continuous
casting.
Stage-2: Expansion of capacity by introduction of endless thin slab casting
with direct rolling facility.
Implementing both the stages of modernisation together would require
much longer period and huge capital investment. Accordingly,
implementation of only Stage-1 modernisation has been considered now
and he present FR has been prepared for Stage-1 modernisation of SMSI, BSL.
Various alternatives considered for Stage-1 modernisation of SMS-I are
deliberated in the following paragraphs.

maximum oxygen blow rates, greatly reduce slopping and allow flexibility
of operation.
3.1.2
Secondary Refining
Ladle furnaces are nowadays integral parts of any SMS with continuous
casting to aid temperature/composition homogeneity and to facilitate
sequence casting. In view of the above, 1 no. of LF unit have been
envisaged in SMS-I.
3.1.3
Casting
Presently the casting of liquid steel is done in the form of ingot steel. The
ingots are sent to Slabbing Mill through soaking pits for production of
slabs.
Continuous casting (CC) technology has been universally adopted for
casting of almost all types of steel grades due to beneficial impact on
yield, product quality, energy saving and reduced operating cost.
Therefore, to maintain competitive edge of BSL, introduction of continuous
casting of liquid steel at SMS-I is considered for implementation.
3.1.3.1
BSL has been earmarked to produce flat products since its inception. The
downstream facilities at BSL are all designed for flat products.
For a flat products based plant like BSL with product mix consisting of
HR/CR coils and sheets, options available for continuous casting are:
- Conventional slab casters
- Thin slab casters
- Endless Thin Slab Caster with Direct Rolling

Air Mist cooling system is proposed in the secondary cooling zone. This
will be controlled by a cooling control model. The purpose is to maintain
the strand surface temperature at predefined levels during the casting
process. The temperature is controlled by adjusting the water flow through
the tuyer and the compressed air. The set point of air/mist control system
shall depend on the casting speed and section size of the slab. This will

The hot gas stream leaving the water cooled membrane and stack will be
firstly quenched and saturated by injection of industrial quality of water at a
flow rate in the range of 350-400 m3/h water injection will be carried out by
a number of spray nozzles, equally distributed in the gas stream. The gas
is cooled to approximately 70 oC in the primary scrubber.
The cooled and partially cleaned gas will enter secondary scrubber at high
speed through adjustable throat of the venturi. On encountering the water,
the gas forms a mist of very fine droplets which capture dust particles The
water required in the scrubber is about 400 m3/h. at 2 kg/cm2 near the
throat partition. The outlet of secondary venturi will be re-circulated to
primary venturi, by means of pumps, with secondary venturi getting the
direct supply from the pump house.
The cleaned gases are discharged by an ID fan through a 3-way valve
either to flare stack or to gas holder for recovery. The ID fan will be
provided with fluid coupling to take care of fluctuating loads.
4.6.1.7
Gas Recovery
After the 3-way valve, in the gas holder direction, gas goes through a
safety hydraulic non return valve. A common collector carries the gas in to
the gas holder of 50,000 m3 capacity. The gas from the holder will be
cleaned in ESPs. Finally gas is exported to main fuel network by means of
gas booster. The gas holder will be of dry fabric seal type.
The ESPs (1 working and 1 standby) will be of wet, tubular type. Capacity
of each will be 40,000 m3/h. Two boosters (1 working + 1 standby) each of
capacity 40,000 m3/h will be installed.
4.6.1.8
4.6.1.8.1 Contaminated water from gas cleaning plant will be received in the existing
slurry launder and transported to Sludge Pond compartment near BOO
oxygen Plant and then it will go to Cooling Pond-1 under gravity through
existing route. The existing launders will be able to handle the slurry
generated from New BOF.

Water System
The water system envisaged for SMS-1 modernization will be re-circulating
type for Lance cooling, Hood cooling, machine cooling and spray cooling..
All major units will have their own water circulation system. Only make-up
water will be supplied to these units from the proposed make up water
system. The shops circulating water system will be designed for
minimum/zero water discharge. Recirculation system for new units shall
consist of pumps, filters, heat exchangers, chemical dozing, cooling tower,
pipes, valves, fittings etc. Existing system for recirculation of slurry water
system from GCP shall be utilized for modernized plant also as increase in
slurry water is not envisaged technologically. High pressure water for GCP

savings in unit cost of production of slabs thru caster route Vs Ingot route
comes to Rs 2220/t. Thus the annual savings in proposed case for the
envisaged production of 1.3 Mtpa of cast slabs works out to Rs 288.60 cr.
6.4.2
Presently, BOF gas generated from SMS-1 is being utilised in waste heat
boilers to generate steam which is then vented to the atmosphere. After
installation of BOF gas holder proposed under the present scheme, the gas
can be gainfully utilised in Power Plant as fuel in place of boiler coal.
Considering an avg. gas generation of 80nm3/t of crude steel and CV of 1800
Kcal/nm3, the total energy available from BOF gas is estimated to be 93600
Gcal/annum. Assuming CV of Boiler coal as 3000 Kcal/kg, the BOF gas
generated can replace nearly 31200 t of boiler coal per annum. Considering
boiler coal cost of Rs 2609/t, the annual savings in monetary terms comes to
Rs 8.14 cr.
6.4.3
Based on the above, the total Gross Margin after implementation of proposed
measures has been estimated to be Rs. 296.74 crore. The details are
presented at Annexure 6.4.3-1.
