Models to Predict Carbon and Temperature in the Steelmaking Electric Furnace

Reduce the differences between the real carbon results measured by Celox in the Steelmaking electric furnace and the carbon results obtained through a model (statistical/machine learning). In the past, a model with this objective had already been created and was being used. However, since the end of 2021, a large difference has been observed in these results, indicating the need to analyze what happened during this period and which variables influence the carbon result more significantly and with greater accuracy. Being a well-adjusted model, it will be possible to have some financial gain and other non-measurable gains.
