As more steel producers switch to electric arc furnaces, recovering the value left over in EAF dust via the roasting process will become increasingly important and offers a profitable alternative to disposal. Pelletizing EAF dust allows the material to be effectively roasted for metal recovery with improved heat transfer efficiency while mitigating the risk of entrainment.
FEECO provides a variety of equipment for processing and handling EAF dust.
MATERIAL PROCESSING
Pelletizing & Conditioning
Our continuous pin mixers and pugmill mixers provide effective conditioning for pelletizing pre-treatment, though they are not recommended when CaO content is high, or excessively large pieces of refractory are present.
Our disc pelletizers are the industry standard for producing a uniform, spherical granular product for achieving maximum process efficiency in the kiln.
Industrial Cooling
FEECO can provide custom rotary coolers in either the direct or indirect configuration for cooling EAF dust.
BULK MATERIAL HANDLING
FEECO also provides a comprehensive line of bulk material handling equipment for all of your EAF dust handling needs. We offer custom bucket elevators, belt conveyors, reversing shuttle conveyors, and steep incline conveyors, along with pieces to increase the flexibility of your handling system, such as belt trippers and plows, and belt feeders.
We can supply a single piece of handling equipment to fit into your existing process, or a complete bulk handling system as part of an overall process solution.
Process Testing and Design
Testing is often a critical component in the success of EAF pelletizing. The FEECO Innovation Center is a unique testing facility where we can test your material to work out process variables and design commercial-scale units.
The FEECO Innovation Center is well-equipped to suit a wide range of batch testing needs, including pelletizing and roasting.
PARTS & SERVICE
FEECO provides a comprehensive offering of parts and service support to keep your equipment running its best for years to come. This includes a variety of field services,process and equipment audits, spare parts, and more.
