Abstract
THE consumption of refractories used in lining
the steel teeming ladles, constitutes a major
percentage of the total refractories consumption
in a Steel Plant and hence any attention paid
towards improving the ladle life is well justified.
In Bhilai Steel Plant, moreover, there are only
nine ladles of 270 ton capacity to service six
250-ton capacity open-hearth furnaces i.e. 1.5
ladles per furnace and thus ladle life becomes
vitally important, in maintaining a high level
of productions in the Steel Melting Shop.
