It's peculiar how the control box on the side of the furnace starts spitting gobs of glowing goo, just before the video cuts out. I don't think it was supposed to do that, so the video cutting out was probably a classically brazen 'saving face' exercise. Nothing to see here! 🙈🙄

The initial reaction at the beginning of the melting process the volatiles in the scrap (paint, greased and oils) are flashing off and producing the flames and smoke. This slowly dissipates over 10-15 minutes. What you see is the controlled reaction of that process which is quite normal. I worked around these arc furnaces for 35 years and saw this every day.
@@idkidk8278 It's extremely loud. The initial arc strikes are like explosions themselves (think of a close lighning strike that you hear as soon as you see.) And the volatiles that vaporize in the heat are exploding also. Even with the best hearing protection it still sounds loud.

Yes, this is normal. What's different in mills in the U.S. is the uniformity of the scrap being heated. I have worked briefly at the Edgar Thomson works in Pittsburgh and all that colorful smoke speaks to there being a lot of non-ferrous junk in there.
I like how they cant be bothered to hook up the extraction system, and just say fuck it and let it all just vent into the building. Worker safety? China: Yes...
@@Stefan72 I have seen other videos of "wet charges" where it sure looks like an explosion to me. Did that ever happen to you? And how would you clean up the place afterwards if it was showered with drops of molten steel?
Worked in a steel mill around three electric arc furnaces and this is normal operation one load of scrap was melted at a time until all three were melted and the furnace tapped. It used three large electrified carbon rods that were lowered into the scrap like giant welding rods.As for all the smoke that was normal too except the smoke and dirt collection system isn't in place yet like a giant vacuum cleaner it took most of the dirty smoke to a bag house to be cleaned while the heavier stuff went right below the furnace to be clean out everyday. Some new furnaces now use six rods to melt the scrap with oxygen injected to melt faster yet.
This is normal with the flames, but they don’t have the “bag house “ extraction system on. If the system was on, most of the smoke would disappear. There is also a water cooled ductwork that is not closed to the furnace roof. The bag house collects all the dangerous smoke particles. Also, if you look to the left, you can see a large enclosure that slides too the right when operating normal, and no smoke or flame can be seen, and is used also for noise reduction.
Yeah so we got Mt. Vesuvius erupting right here in the shop so I'm gonna just take a little walk around underneath to make sure it's gettin hot enough...
Normally the exhausters and baghouse are online all during the melting process. It appears the exhaust duct isn't in position to capture the smoike from the furnace 4th hole elbow in this video. This may be because they are testing the transformer and arc controls. Even with the exhaust system and baghouse on line the 4th hole ductwork can't handle it all in the initial minutes of the melt. The flames and smoke are captured by a large duct in the roof of the building, and huge exhaust fans pull it out and into the baghouse. Where I worked we tapped 180T heats every 40-45 miunutes in a furnace with a 120MVA transformer. We had had 3 huge exhaust fans pulling over 1 million cfm combined off the furnace and building roof and through the baghouse. About 2% of the scrap ends up as baghouse dust, consisting mostly of iron oxide and lime dust, with some zinc and lead particulate also.

Funny thing, this sort of industry (metal foundries) are a big reason why solar wind and to a lesser extent hydro cant be the only things powering the grid. The power is too unstable for foundries to operate how they need to. But.... [hopping on my high horse] ....thats why I personally advocate for Small Modular (nuclear) Reactors. Instead of a large vessel just begging to go wrong somehow, a grid can be propped up by fleets of distributed SMRs. A single SMR getting squirrely can easily shutdown and self cool for days without an external cooling loop (as in worst case scenario, and Im pretty sure we can get coolant to any malfunctioning 300kw reactors the size of semi trailers within days of an event a lot easier and quicker than we can figure out how to get a shit ton of water into a large gigawatt reactor vessel about to go off big time style-y, if its even random water coolant compatible....). Im not saying go all nuclear either, we need the 'greener' energy sources to work in harmony. Absolutely every roof needs solar panels. Especially warehouses and malls. Why not? Might as well harvest that energy thats otherwise making the building hot causing the building to use more power for its AC to cool it down because its being baked by the sun and full of little 200w heaters we call humans. Hell, put the panels up on 5' stands. Youd avoid having to make weird geometry considerations, ie cover the entire roof area, and the roof will not only be shaded but a natural draft will develop keeping the roof surface cooler, AND the AC units will be in the shade instead of baking under the sun so the condenser stage will be more efficient! Not everywhere has the land topography for wind (I live between two passes, we have so much wind its rare to see more than half the field of turbines turning), but we can transmit power a long ways. Plus there is always storage (as silly as tying a bunch of old 18650s together sounds, it is an idea, and can address e-waste in the form of lithium batteries if you widen the applicable battery type....but also LiFEPO4 storage is becoming more cost effective). And not just chemical storage, hydro storage. If you have the topology for a hydro battery (a basin up high piped to a basin down low) you can run wind and solar mainly, if the grid power sags pop the valves on the hydro battery to prop the grid up while the SMR fleet comes out of its idle state, then once its active and taking the load pump the water back up the hill by running the SMRs a little more than the grid needs (and recharging chemical storage if utilized). All the while the industries that rely on constant power can have SMRs on site. Easy peasy. The ONLY issue with nuclear is large reactors that in the rare event they have an episode it can be devastating (even though fukushima directly killed only one person, and TMI was a near miniscule release which ultimately was due to accountants using cheaper valves in the design which were ran too close to their failure point temperature (and the control and indicator issues as well....)). Gigawatt plants are a horrible idea. A few tens or hundreds of kilowatt units dotted throughout the city? That sounds fine to me.... I mean, Id love to have a 20KW unit for under my drive way if the Nuclear Regulatory Commission would untwist their panties.....
The risks are managed. Wjhen I started working in the mills mill hands worked close to the furnace and wore in protective clothing and other equipment. In the last 10-20 years almost all work done at the furnace (taking temperatures, steel samples, etc.) is being done by remote controlled robotic arms. Even refractory inspections are done with cameras on the robot arms.
The only way I have to judge whether this is normal or bad is the speed at which the people are moving. Since everyone is just steadily walking, it's probably just fine.
As if there are no steel mills in the US lol. Also, western people buy so much cheap shit from China that we are to blame for a lot of the pollution there. The labor is so cheap that many large western-owned companies have their factories running there. We get the cheap shit, they get the blame for pollution. On top of that, western countries used to haul all their garbage back over to China for "recycling" instead of burying it to the ground. This has somewhat stopped recently because the Chinese realized they can't really recycle the garbage, and have to resort to burying most of it themselves. Out of sight, out of mind!

Not only is using an EAF the cheapest, fastest and cleanest way to produce steel, it also produces the best quality steel with very few impurities like Sulphur or Phosphorus.

@@vicferrari9380 Do you really need someone to explain to you that the smoke produced by an EAF is dirty? I wasn't even talking about the smoke being clean, I was talking about the steel. I still claim that a EAF is the cleanest way of producing steel, smoke included.

@@anelpasic5232 please inform us uneducated in the finer points of EAF operation on just what you mean. If your trying to tell us that that smoke is as pure as a cool mountain breeze no. If your comparing it to smelting or something do carry on.🍿🍺.
@@5roundsrapid263 I should have elaborated on the "clean" part. By clean I meant clean steel not the gasses produced while running, which is a no brainer that they are bad for the environment, but still not nearly as bad as a blast furnace. I know that China is a major polluter, nothing new there.
@@vicferrari9380 Do you really need someone to explain to you that the smoke produced by an EAF is dirty? I wasn't even talking about the smoke being clean, I was talking about the steel. I still claim that a EAF is the cleanest way of producing steel, smoke included.
There is not internal explosion! Watch the workers pass by very calmly and quite! Anyway the forces here are incredible. At what voltage go the 100 kA? So you can calculate the total power!
Всё норм если кому интересно. Просто электроды погружают в ванну.
а что за вана
@@koctikmtl2424 это электродуговая печь для плавления металла. В ванну загружен метал, который будет плавится, за счёт короткого замыкания погружаемого в неё графитового электрода.

The United states has to lower there carbon foot print so these guys can raise theirs
So, when it comes to 100kA chicken wings, I never buy from Chinese eateries. But, good heavens, these look spicy.
You have to appreciate that deafening arc humming and whirring
Reminds me of when a subwoofer decides to let out the magic smoke…….times 10,000
I can't wait to see all these furnaces powered by green energy.
Did I just see a guy walk into that like he was going to turn off the switch.
100,000 Amperes? Holy shit
Hey Tom hold this wire.
...
Tom?
(Yes I know at that level it would be more like the body instantly vaporizing
Also the wire is the size of a tree trunk, so no point in holding it :3
@@sashimanu You'd have to parallel like 25 2000kcim wires per phase to get something rated for 100k amps lmao. I don't even know if you can get something bigger. I'd love to see how this thing works!
@@Stickmanzed for this level, It's gonna be water/liquid cooled.
@@Taotaoba Is it actually? What are your qualifications for reference, I am really curious
Who is this certified badass just walking around this thing like it's nothing?
Gonna power that off solar and wind?
It can be done. Large solar and wind farms put out plenty of power.
China uses massive coal plants. They’re not part of the Paris Accord.
"Shutting down. Attempting shut down. It's not...it's-it's not...it's not shutting down...it's not..."

Don’t worry, China says it’s a “green” industry…good for environment.
Yes the building is green outside so it's ecologic. China said it.
Dude practicing for a movie roll: detonates huge explosion on bad guys in background, calmly walks toward camera with HUGE fireball in background...no need to look back. Classic.
If that’s really how it’s supposed to work I can’t imagine what the first time running it and telling everyone. Don’t worry it’s ok it’s supposed to work like this. 😳

Guys my furnace is humming aggressively...
Winhall Vermont, 1985: I saw a similar level of energy contained in a small space. My father's 12 alarm chili that won the county fair.
There is still a blasted crater where the outhouses were setup...
Look up the "Texas Chili Contest" joke/story - you'll enjoy that....
My job don't seem so bad anymore if that's normal to walk towards That and not rum when coming back . wow !
Rum? I’d need rum after walking out of that! 😆
what are the voltage and amps going through the electrodes ?
Dunno the voltage *across* the electrodes (what actually matters), but the current thru them is right in the title 😉
@@MadScientist267 someone in another comment said its literally 40 Volts, but that kind of amperage gives off 4 Megawatts of power. i did the math, and its legit.
@@CapStar362 s/gives off/passes/ but yeah
@@MadScientist267 www.supercircuits.com/resources/tools/volts-watts-amps-converter
do the math, it checks out.
but i did find plenty of resources saying its actually 400-900 Volts from the secondary winding of the transformer onto the arc itself.
if thats the case, that 4MW becomes 40MW

Who is the chad calmly walking underneath that volcano like monstrous energies are no big deal?
Glad to see that worker at least had sunglasses to protect him...
The lack of safety standards in China is absolutely appalling.
Industrial embient music.
Now 100kAmps is not a power measurement. It's the flow of electricity. You must measure in power (watts). My led can be 0.01V and 100kA and it consumes like a mobile phone and not like that furnace. People are uneducated
So we now have to drive electric cars because of this 🤦🏼♂️
Other way around, if you meant power usage.

This happened in China. An internal furnace exploded during work. And some sparks appears like this is a movie.
No wonder their pollution is so intense
If they’d just join that Paris Accord I’m sure this kind of thing won’t happen anymore...
@@SD-unlimited Guess what, China is one of Paris Accord founder. And more interesting, US is the only one who once quit it.
@@looharry4200 Oh good! So it’s working then.
1:07 I like the way that guy just walks past as if all is well in his world.
I think it's normal for the first few runs of your EAF. There will be less smoke after run-in.
No!
smoke comes from the scrap metal that is being molten in there, it will be each time similar amount, the more rusty scrap, the more smoke.
Not the single reason, but one of the reasons why 2021 may be the last happy(ish) year on earth....
der abzug geht nicht Ö.ö
Dachte ich mir auch
Ne sieht man doch der ist völlig in Ordnung 😆
Kudos to the dude who walked straight into the devil's bedroom in the the beginning!
i would love to know how these forges get enough power
One steel producer that I delivered to had five gas turbine generators outside the building, and 100,000 gallons of propane stored on site.

Jeez, they turned it up to 11, and it stopped time
Divided by zero. But the sound still kept going...
