The Medium-Frequency Coreless Induction Furnace – A CO2 and NOx-Friendly Solution for Scrap Melting

High-production steel facilities usually employ energy-optimized electric arc furnaces (EAFs). Small and special steelmakers are looking for smaller, more flexible units. Highest product quality is an demanding request of that market and the EAF is probably not the most economic melting solution. Induction technology has:<br/>1. Lower investment costs, about 30% cheaper than respective EAFs.<br/>2. Induction furnaces yield zero NOx and CO2 emission considering use of renewable energy, and yields vastly reduced dust generation.<br/>3. Reduced operating costs (US$12/ton). <br/>4. Lower metal losses and virtually no oxidation of iron.<br/>5. Less demands on the power grid.
