Abstract

Within the framework of a 3.5 million tons production of the Chertal steel plant, the RH unit and the new strand caster will produce about 1 million tons of ULC steel dedicated to automobile body applications. Therefore, some modifications at the RH were decided in 2000. This paper will be articulated in two parts: in the first part, we will present the results obtained with the modified RH installation: decarburization and metallurgical achievements as well as steel reheating capability and performances of the burner. In the second one we will present the new casting working point and focus on the quality results of the RH-CC4 production line.
