Slab quality affects the quality of hot rolled sheet significantly. There were serious transverse corner cracks on continuous casting slab of 510L steel plate in Panzhihua Steel before. Based on this, some effective countermeasures are put forward, such as the optimization of ratio of heat flux on narrow side and broad side of casting slab and mold powder, as well as the stabilization of casting speed and working condition of caster. With these countermeasures, transverse corner cracks on continuous casting slab have been significantly reduced, and the lines and peeling defects on hot rolled sheet reduce from 30% to 0.

There are many defects on the surface of continuous casting slab, such as corner cracks, longitudinal cracks etc. To analyze the cracks and determine their locations, two-dimensional heat transfer mathematical model and thermal elasto-plastic stress model of slab casting were established in this paper. The process of solidification, temperature field, and thermal stress distribution on slab surface were analyzed using finite element method. The effect of thermal stress on the cracks on the slab surface was discussed. The location of the cracks caused by thermal stress can be predicted. This is useful for finding approaches to overcome these defects.

There were serious transverse corner cracks on continuous casting slab of automobile frame steel plate in Panzhihua Steel before, and study on the control of transverse corner cracks had been carried out. Some effective countermeasures are put forward, such as the optimization of ratio of heat flux density on narrow side and broad side of casting slab (RHFD) and mold powder, as well as the stabilization of casting speed and working condition of caster. Industrial test shows that the transverse corner cracks on continuous casting slab have been significantly reduced, and the lines and peeling defects on hot rolled sheet have been eliminated due to the transverse corner cracks.

Effect of superheat and initial rolling temperature on the morphology and distribution of sulfide in non quenched and tempered free cutting steel 30MnVS has been studied by optical microscope and scanning electron microscope. Results show that proper superheat and initial rolling temperature can turn rod-shaped sulfide into massive or globular sulfide,to alleviate sulfide segregation and pro-eutectoid ferrite distribution along the boundary of pearlite clusters in 30MnVS , increase the intragranular ferrite content and optimize the structure of continuous casting slab.

The amount of CO2 emissions from steelworks accounts for a great share of the total CO2 emissions from industry in China. Thus, reducing CO2 emissions from steelworks is urgent for China’s environmental protection and sustainable development. This study aims at identifying factors that influence CO2 emissions from steelworks and proposing measures to reduce CO2 emissions. The life cycle inventory (LCI) of iron and steel products implies the relationship between the CO2 emissions of the steelworks and the input variables of the LCI. The Tornado Chart Tool is utilized to calculate the variation of CO2 emissions caused by the change of each input variables of LCI. Then, mean sensitivity of each input variable is calculated and the ranking criterion developed is used to identify the main factors influencing the integrated steelworks. Subsequently, measures for reducing CO2 emissions are proposed. The results indicate that the very important influencing factors of CO2 emissions in steelworks are the CO2 emission factor of Blast Furnace Gas (BFG), liquid steel unit consumption of continuous casting, continuous casting slab unit consumption of hot rolling and hot metal ratio of steelmaking. Consequently, many efficient measures for reducing CO2 emissions have been proposed, such as removing CO2 contained in BFG, decreasing the hot metal ratio of Basic Oxygen Furnace (BOF), recycling BFG, optimizing the products’ structure, etc.
