Titel
A review of mathematical programming in integrated iron‐ and steelmaking
Abstract
This paper presents and reviews the current application fields of mathematical programming in integrated iron- and steelmaking research. Three different fields of mathematical programming applications are identified and discussed: unit operation optimization, by-product gas distribution, and integrated system optimization and design. Based on current research activities in the iron and steel industry, development trends for mathematical programming in integrated iron- and steelmaking research, such as the cogeneration of chemicals aided by renewable energy grid integration, are presented.
