Set the boundary first. Collect site evidence before selecting a measure or reporting a result.
Separate furnace electricity, burners, carbon additions, oxygen, casting, reheating and utilities. State the scrap and direct-reduced-iron mix.
Electricity interval data, metallic charge, yield, carbon and electrode use, fuels, oxygen, production by grade and the applicable electricity factor.
Use measured surface area, temperature and operating hours to calculate heat loss from boilers, kilns, heat exchangers, valves and pipework. Inzonex supplies removable modular insulation for equipment that requires maintenance access.
Do not add a calculated reduction to an emissions report until the reporting boundary, factor, implementation date and verification method have been approved.
Compare routes only for equivalent products. Test whether a change affects yield, tap temperature, cycle time, product quality or the electricity boundary.
Review ladle, tundish, reheating and steam-system surfaces using measured temperatures and actual operating schedules.
