Blast Furnace

Blast furnaces are complex industrial systems whose efficient operation is crucial for iron production. Current research focuses on improving process control and optimization through advanced modeling techniques, such as artificial neural networks and domain-knowledge integrated classifiers, to predict key parameters like electrical conductivity and classify operational states. These models aim to enhance safety and energy efficiency by leveraging both data-driven approaches and expert knowledge, leading to more precise control and reduced operational costs in the iron and steel industry.
