Sumitomo Metal Industries' energy conservation program

Abstract

Sumitomo Metals Industries' efforts since the first oil crisis to develop energy conserving technology have been remarkably effective. At all establishments, energy management has been promoted and processes improved. The SAVE technique has been introduced and large scale energy saving plant has been developed. Following the improved price of coal relative to oil after the second oil crisis an energy-measures committee was set up with the immediate aim of converting two integrated iron and steel works to oil-less operation. A wide range of coal utilization technology is being developed: blast furnaces are being converted from minimum oil operation to COM (coal-oil mixtures) injection and all-coke operation, and the utilization of coal gasification and liquefaction and of by-product gas is being pursued. The present article reviews the status and effects of the above developments and summarizes future research tasks.
