The paper presents the new EAF digital furnace implemented at Hybar’s new 630,000 tpy rebar micromill in Osceola, Arkansas. The X-Pact® AURA was pre tuned before delivery using advanced development and testing methods with RTDS simulations (Real Time Digital Simulator), which allowed it to be commissioned in two days only and the EAF to be rumped up in only four heats. The X-Pact AURA family...

Improving the quality of steel has been a matter of routine for metallurgical engineers and steelmaking companies in a demanding market for quality products. The traditional Electric Arc Furnace process has the lowest carbon emission compared to the integrated route, making it the best route for green steel production. In addition, the industry is focused on ensuring that high-quality steel...
At the ArcelorMittal Hamburg facility, steel production has long relied on electric arc furnaces (EAF), a process widely recognized for its resource efficiency and decarbonization potential. To further enhance operational performance, General Electric implemented a DirectFeed system, replacing the conventional static VAR compensator (SVC). This advanced high-voltage power conversion technology...
Electric arc furnaces (EAF) play a pivotal role in the steel industry’s transition toward renewable energy and reduced emissions. However, their grid-disturbing behavior makes it increasingly challenging to integrate new systems into weak grids.
To meet these demands, Primetals Technologies has developed the Active Power Feeder (APF) based on Modular Multilevel Converters (MMC) technology....
