FTP DESIGN
From EAF Roof Elbow to Stack, CVS provides complete Fume Treatment Plants with
engineering, design, manufacturing and installation. Design considers also LF, MHS,
canoppy and other dust emitting points by the goal of ZERO DUST EMITION to
environment. CVS offers economically viable solutions at European standards.
CVS - FTP
Design Concept
CVS designs FTP to collect, suck and treat the primary and secondary emissions
generated by the EAF, the primary emission generated by the LF and the emission
emitted by the Material Handling System.
The dedusting system consists of a
set of fume collection points and a
set of ducting lines (water-cooled or
radiant type), which convey the
various emissions to the bag filter
already under implementation.

Melting phase
•EAF in melting phase (roof closed,
primary fumes suction line open);
•Suction from the canopy hood to
provide meltshop ventilation and
primary fumes cooling;
•LF in heating phase;
•MHS in operation.
Charging/Tapping phase
•EAF in charging/tapping phase (roof
open, primary fumes suction line
closed);
•Suction from the canopy hood;
•LF in heating phase;
•MHS in operation.

Bag Filter Unit
CVS - FTP
Typical Filter Unit
Each compartment consists of a “raw gas”
chamber below and a “clean gas”
chamber above divided by the bag
supporting plate. The lower chamber
composes the filter body, contains the
filtering bags and the dust collecting
hoppers. The upper chamber contains the
injectors for the compressed air
distribution to the bags for cleaning
purpose.
The two chambers are connected to the central collector respectively to the gas inlet and
outlet by means of separation dampers. Dampers for lower chambers are manually
actuated, being utilized in closed position as an additional safety in the event of
maintenance or inspection; the dampers of the upper chambers, instead, are provided
with pneumatic actuators, being automatically closed while performing maintenance and
bag cleaning in OFF-LINE mode.
The cleaning system of the filtering bags is located inside the “clean gas” chamber. It is
composed of one distributor per row of bags, completed with compressed air feeder to
each bag.

Typical Canoppy Hood
The canopy hood is placed on the top of the building roof above the EAF and has the
purpose to collect the emissions generated during charging & tapping phases of the
EAF. Besides, it has the duty to ventilate the building during the EAF power-on phase
and to such the necessary dilution air to finally cool down the primary emission
temperature before to be processed by the filtering unit.
The shape and volume of the canopy hood depends on several factors, such as:
•distance between EAF mouth and bottom line of the canopy hood
•EAF shell diameter
•position of the EAF in the bay
•geometrical shape of the building roof. The canopy hood is designed to allow an
adequate “ resident time “ of the fumes
during the EAF most critical operating
conditions (i.e. charging and tapping).
Another important factor taken in due
consideration for the canopy hood design
is to avoid the “flow back” phenomena. In
fact, proper dimensioning of the canopy
hood can give enough volume to destroy
kinetic energy of downward fumes.

Typical Pelletizer
The pelletizing machine transforms
the dust collected by the bag filter
into nodules through the addition of
a binder (water), which is sprayed in
a rotary plate. The pellet forms
owing to their rolling on the raking
plate of the pelletizing machine,
which is put in slow rotation. Thanks
to the raking position of the plate
and to the material moving, the
greater parts get to the surface while
the smaller parts pass to the lower
beds.
As soon as the plate is full of pellets (already formed), these pass over its rim and
reach the discharge chute.
The system includes also a hopper to be located underneath the pelletizing machine
and designed to receive and store the pellets; the hopper is fitted with sliding door for
pellet discharge on trucks; the sliding door is driven by a hydraulic mechanism fed by a
dedicated power pack.

AUTOMATION
Operation of complete dedusting
system is syncronised by automation
system.
Distribution of flow to primary and
secondary section of EAF is
controlled by two dampers located
on the lines actuated automatically
by automation.
