Process data collected by blast-furnace sensors

In hot-metal production, toxic combustible gases are both consumed and generated, making the provision of industrial safety a critical task.

Timely identification of the furnace operating condition based on informative indicators obtained from real-time measurements of technological parameters, along with corresponding management decisions by process engineers, helps reduce the number of accidents, decrease the specific coke rate, and lower the probability of producing off-spec hot metal. The datasets include the following parameters: total and specific gas pressure differences, peripheral gas temperature, top gas temperature, CO2 content of top gas, H2 content of top gas, top gas pressure, ore-to-coke ratio, blast flowrate, blast oxygen flowrate, hot blast pressure, hot blast temperature, cold blast pressure, cold blast temperature, and Si content in hot metal.
