Ladle Metallurgy: Basics, Objectives and ProcessesElakkiya Mani
Worldwide steel production in 2019 reached 1869 million tons, with China as the largest producer at 996 million tons. India was the second largest steel producer at 111 million tons. Ladle metallurgy involves further refining of molten steel in a ladle after tapping from a converter or electric furnace. It allows for homogenization, deoxidation, desulfurization, and other processes. Key ladle metallurgy techniques include ladle furnace treatment, argon stirring, vacuum degassing, and alloy additions to adjust steel chemistry and properties.
1) The document discusses different steelmaking processes including the Bessemer converter process, open hearth furnace process, and basic oxygen converter process.
2) The Bessemer converter process was the first major steelmaking technique but has been replaced by basic oxygen converters. It used hot metal and an oxygen blast to oxidize impurities.

The document discusses refractories used in steel ladle linings. It describes the key functions of steel ladles in transferring molten steel. Different zones in ladle linings require different refractory materials due to varying temperatures and conditions. Magnesia, dolomite, zircon, carbon and spinel refractories are highlighted as important materials used in slag lines, sidewalls, and bottoms of ladles. Magnesia carbon bricks are well-suited for slag zones due to their thermal properties and corrosion resistance. Monolithic castables based on alumina spinel composites are used in ladle bottoms for their strength, thermal shock resistance and corrosion performance.
Vacuum degassing is commonly used in steel production to remove gases like hydrogen and nitrogen from liquid steel. It works by exposing the steel to vacuum conditions, which allows the gases to be readily removed. Specifically, vacuum degassing lowers the levels of dissolved gases to parts per million and improves the quality of the final cast product by preventing cracking defects. It is a critical process that improves both productivity and quality in continuous steel casting.

Production of Direct Reduced Iron in Rotary Hearth FurnaceSateesh Kumar
The document discusses the production of direct reduced iron (DRI) using a rotary hearth furnace (RHF). DRI is produced by reducing iron ore to a purity of 90-97% iron through a process using reducing gases like hydrogen and carbon monoxide at high temperatures below iron's melting point. In an RHF, iron ore and carbon pellets are heated on a rotating hearth through burners as the iron oxides are reduced over 6-12 minutes to produce DRI pellets. The furnace uses heat transfer primarily through radiation to facilitate the exothermic reduction reactions between iron oxides and reducing gases like carbon monoxide to produce solid sponge iron. RHF allows for efficient and lower cost

Embedded machine learning-based road conditions and driving behavior monitoringIJECEIAES
Car accident rates have increased in recent years, resulting in losses in human lives, properties, and other financial costs. An embedded machine learning-based system is developed to address this critical issue. The system can monitor road conditions, detect driving patterns, and identify aggressive driving behaviors. The system is based on neural networks trained on a comprehensive dataset of driving events, driving styles, and road conditions. The system effectively detects potential risks and helps mitigate the frequency and impact of accidents. The primary goal is to ensure the safety of drivers and vehicles. Collecting data involved gathering information on three key road events: normal street and normal drive, speed bumps, circular yellow speed bumps, and three aggressive driving actions: sudden start, sudden stop, and sudden entry. The gathered data is processed and analyzed using a machine learning system designed for limited power and memory devices. The developed system resulted in 91.9% accuracy, 93.6% precision, and 92% recall. The achieved inference time on an Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense with a 32-bit CPU running at 64 MHz is 34 ms and requires 2.6 kB peak RAM and 139.9 kB program flash memory, making it suitable for resource-constrained embedded systems.

Comparative analysis between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquapon...bijceesjournal
The aquaponic system of planting is a method that does not require soil usage. It is a method that only needs water, fish, lava rocks (a substitute for soil), and plants. Aquaponic systems are sustainable and environmentally friendly. Its use not only helps to plant in small spaces but also helps reduce artificial chemical use and minimizes excess water use, as aquaponics consumes 90% less water than soil-based gardening. The study applied a descriptive and experimental design to assess and compare conventional and reconstructed aquaponic methods for reproducing tomatoes. The researchers created an observation checklist to determine the significant factors of the study. The study aims to determine the significant difference between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquaponics systems propagating tomatoes in terms of height, weight, girth, and number of fruits. The reconstructed aquaponics system’s higher growth yield results in a much more nourished crop than the traditional aquaponics system. It is superior in its number of fruits, height, weight, and girth measurement. Moreover, the reconstructed aquaponics system is proven to eliminate all the hindrances present in the traditional aquaponics system, which are overcrowding of fish, algae growth, pest problems, contaminated water, and dead fish.
