Abstract text:
The steelmaking process in the electric arc furnace causes environmental pollution in all its components: water, air and soil. The electric arc furnace steelmaking is considered to be an industrial process with high degree of pollution because the following pollutants are transferred in the air environment factor: carbon oxide, sulphur oxide, nitrogen oxide, volatile organic compounds, particulate matter, dioxins and furans. The purpose of the paper constitutes the assessment of air environmental factor pollution to the steelmaking in the electric arc furnace. Are presented the results regarding the gaseous emission concentration emitted at the carbon steelmaking from an electric arc furnace. The results were interpreted and compared with concentrations of gaseous emissions existing in the environmental protection standards. According the data obtained, steelmaking process has a negative impact on the air environment factor, so it is necessary to find solutions to decrease the pollutant concentrations.
Key Words:
electric arc furnace; pollution; steelmaking; gaseous emission; negative impact.
