Our applications engineering team, in conjunction with customers and our technology team, have created thermal management fibres, refractories and microporous solutions for use in furnaces, as backup insulation and for foundry products. We support the design phase, including material selection, in order to reduce energy, improve furnace performance and ensure that any molten metal transfer vessel melt holds. Our global network of subject matter experts are ready to support the commitment from the metals industry, to reduce emissions in their plants. Furnace Linings for Iron and Steel Our leading high temperature, high performance insulating fibres, refractory and microporous solutions are available in an extensive range of formulations, and can be used for unique backup, plus furnace lining designs for reheating and heat-treating furnaces. Pyro-Bloc® modules provide the furnace design a superior lining solution on the hot face in blast furnaces, hearth furnaces, and heat treatment furnaces. Our K™, JM™, TJM™ ranges of insulating fire bricks offer superior performance solutions to lining designs . For severe atmospheric conditions, we offer engineered solutions with our Superwool® XTRA module lining solution. These products feature excellent resistance to high temperatures, mechanical stresses and chemical attack, for reliable operation and extended service life. Like all Thermal Ceramics products, they provide effective and reliable insulation, and reduce energy costs at key stages in iron and steel processing. Backup for Molten Metal Transport Vessels Thermal Ceramics has developed a unique system solution for molten metal transfer applications to support the Iron and Steel sector and further our commitment to carbon emissions reduction solutions for our business partners. In steel making backup insulation, although very thin, can reduce heat loss drastically which in turn can reduce tap temperatures, increase residence time, reduce the thermal gradient in dense refractory, which increases refractory life and increase molten metal capacity. Partnering with our Applications Engineering team, we are able to provide detailed Heat Flow Analysis to ensure your improved lining system is achieving: High-temperature capability providing increased safety to the worker and process Best-in-class insulating and thermal performance – 60% improvement – resulting in excellent energy savings and reduction in CO2 emissions Optimum mechanical strength providing reliability of ladle performance Our products and systems, like Superwool 1650SI Board, WDS® LambdaFlex® Microporous are among the solutions to support your harsh manufacturing challenges.
