Optimization of specific heating consumption of coke oven plant using flow meter calibration modification

Coke oven plant produces coke which acts as a reducing agent in blast furnaces. So, coke is an important material which is also called as a reducing agent. Coke is basically used for manufacturing of steel materials and extraction of metals. In an integrated steel plant coke is a prime material for making high grade of steels. In this present research work, the calibration of flow meter is modified. By this modification of gas flow meter calibration coke oven gas flow reduced from 17100Nm3/hrs to 16900Nm3/hrs, such as 200 Nm3 on hourly basis saving without any extra manpower cost. The proposed method is also cost effective as it saves Rs 6483000 every month for producing coke. This methodology is also helpful for reducing the manufacturing cost of coke in a recovery type of coke plant and stable oven operation and prolongation of coke oven life. Future advancements in this technique will allow us to minimize the need for money, which will revolutionize the nation's economy.
