Abstract
Smooth operation of blast furnace largely depends on a good cast house practice,
i.e. on the maintenance of trough and runner. In Tiseo, clay bonded ramming material
was used for trough and sand was used for lining the runner. Both these materials
required constant attention and involved heavy maintenance job. Carbonaceous lining
material has been developed to overcome these difficulties and successfully used in the
Plant. Details of the laboratory work on various compositions and their service performance
have been discussed.
