Description
The removal of copper oxide particulate from coolants in this application is known to have positive effects on coolant condition resulting in longer coolant life, improved quality rod, longer roll life, and increased production. This presentation provides the most recent information to the copper rod producer about system design, sizing, and component preference. Caster water filtration for both wheel and twin-belt continuous cast processes is also reviewed, including discussion of improvements in copper rod quality, production uptime, and lower operational costs.
