Abstract
The reconstruction of the hearth of a 2000 m3 blast furnace at the Bhi lai Works in India is described. The improved operational reliability obtained is attributed to the increase in hearth lining thickness with in the limits of the existing furnace support system, the use of micro porous carbon refractories, improvements in the cooling system, and th e use of systems to diagnose the state of the refractory lining and co olers.
