McKinsey consultant teacher Li Chaoyi and Chen Hu comprehensively introduced the project situation, reported the site situation and project work arrangement in terms of ore blending optimization, raw material management, sintering optimization, blast furnace optimization, etc.

       In terms of ore allocation optimization, based on input information and restrictions such as raw fuel market quotation, plant equipment and process conditions, multi-scenario quantitative analysis was carried out to increase mineral powder such as Newman powder, Russian fine powder and KMG, adjust the dosage of other long cooperative mineral powder, slightly reduce sinter grade, stabilize alkalinity and Si content, and explore structural opportunities in the ore market.

       In terms of raw material management, the proportion of sintering and pelletizing into the furnace is regulated in advance, the basicity of slag is stabilized, logistics planning and organization is optimized, the management of raw material into the furnace is strengthened, the coordination ability of departments is improved, and the production operation is resumed regularly.

In terms of sintering optimization, through optimizing the production process route, improving the stability of water control of the mixture and strengthening the distribution operation, improving the quality of sinter; By stable control of mixture moisture and optimization of fuel crushing production system, the burn up of sintered solid is reduced.
       In terms of blast furnace optimization, through the control of raw fuel and the improvement of blast furnace operation, step by step improvement, stable furnace condition, improve gas utilization rate, and combined with the operation policy of coal extraction and coke reduction, improve the efficiency of tonnage steel.
