Actual problems of thermal and renewable energy in metallurgy

Industrial production has been driven by the requirements of maintaining or improving product quality and minimization of production costs. Within these requirements the overall energy management plays important roles. It is a known fact that the improving fuel utilisation efficiency is the key to good financial and environmental practice. To meet the higher requirements it is necessary to improve existing furnace by optimising the energy efficiency and by reducing the pollutant production of burners and combustion chambers. In the introduction of the article, the efficiency improvement opportunities for fuel‐ based process heating systems in metallurgical practice are listed. Thereafter, some of the solutions for increasing the energy efficiency for metallurgical furnaces in the Republic of Croatia are briefly described.
