A refractory is a material that retains its shape and chemical identity when subjected to high temperatures and is used in applications that require extreme resistance to heat. Specifically, refractories must be able to withstand temperatures above 538°C (1,000°F).

The refractory around the burner head actually protects the flame from being cooled too rapidly (from heat transfer) along with creating the proper flame shape and velocity. Boiler refractory is heat-resistant material that lines the high-temperature areas of the furnace. Refractory usually consists of castables, bricks, ceramic wools or fibers ...

Refractory materials used in chemical and cement plants, when process products intensively circulate and rubs the surface of refractory material, must have a high abrasion resistance. Abrasion resistance is determined according to …

Refractories are ceramic materials designed to withstand the very high temperatures (in excess of 1,000°F [538°C]) encountered in modern manufacturing. More heat-resistant than metals, they are used to line the …

These materials are used to line the hot surfaces inside industrial production plants. Magnesium oxide is one such material. It is used as a basic refractory material for crucibles and many industrial processes. The properties discussed above all contribute to the use of magnesia (MgO) as a refractory material. It has a wide availability and is ...

believed to offer the best possibility for a clear understanding of the origin and nature of steel plant refractories. 3.1.1 Magnesia or Magnesia–Lime Group This group includes all refractories made from synthetic magnesites and dolomite. These consti-tute the most important group of refractories for the basic steelmaking processes. All these ...

material will not allow any steam to pass thru; the integrity of the lining being limited by its ability to contain the buildup of steam pressure within. In an actual lining, even a little water highly restricted can develop pressures that exceed the strength of the refractory material resulting in significant damage from explosive spalling.

Each step of the cement-making process has special requirements regarding the correct choice of refractory materials. The design of the plant, the raw materials used in the process, and the various fuel options, all have a major influence on the refractories required. Alkali infiltrations, build-ups, abrasions and the use of alternative fuels ...

Refractory and brick materials are needed to line huge shaft-like blast furnaces in which the molten pig is formed. The auxiliary furnaces or hot blast stoves, which heat the air for the blast furnace, are also lined with refractories. The molten pig iron from the blast furnace is then sent to a brick- or refractory-lined ladle.

In 2014, ArcelorMittal started trialling the use of recycled refractory material at various plants, reclaiming for example some 4,000 tonnes of refractory minerals from ladles and slide gates at its Burns Harbor plant. In conducting this research, ArcelorMittal US acknowledged two major challenges in refractory recycling: "Firstly, the market ...
