AUMUND conveying technology for green steel

Frank Reddermann, AUMUND Group, 9. Oktober 2024

AUMUND Fördertechnik is supplying two bucket apron conveyors for transporting hot direct reduced iron (DRI) to the thyssenkrupp Steel Europe direct reduction plant at Duisburg in Germany. For this hydrogen-based green steel production process, the two hot material conveyors are the direct connection between the direct reduction plant and the smelting furnace. Delivery of the conveying equipment to the steelworks is planned for the end of 2024. This paper outlines some of the key design considerations when selecting conveying technology for DRI plants, and the importance of selecting reliable technology.
