    The relationship between denitrification rate of molten steel and initial w [N] and vacuum degree cycle number and thickness of slag layer is analyzed through denitrification process of 210 t RH refining furnace in Sheet Plant of Baotou Steel. Test results show that: The denitrification rate under vacuum is controlled by many process factors; the influence of initial w [N] on denitrification rate exhibits ladder characteristics; low vacuum is a necessary condition for obtaining higher denitrification rate; the effect of denitrification is the best when cycle number keeps within 10~12 times; the thickness of slag layer has double influence on denitrification, and the slag quantity should be controlled reasonably so that the thickness of slag layer can be avoided from 130 to 150 mm interval.

    In the paper, it is introduced and analyzed the effects of main alloying elements, impurity elements and special elements on magnetic properties for cold rolled non-oriented electrical steel of low carbon and low silicon, and the mechanism of action for these elements effects on magnetic properties. The results show: Si, Al, Mn and other major alloying elements are the main determinants of magnetic properties, with their contents increasing, iron loss increasing, the magnetic susceptibility values decreasing; C, N, O, S, Ti and other impurities are not conducive to magnetic properties; after the addition of Sn, RE and other special elements, the composition of favorable texture can be increased obviously, and the magnetic properties can be optimized.

    In the paper, the cause of longitudinal crack in the production of SS400Ti from CSP thin slab caster is analyzed, and through the electron microscopic scanning analysis of crack source, the real cause of longitudinal crack is degeneration of mould fluxes. Combined with production practice of CSP production line for many years, the control and solving path of longitudinal crack of SS400Ti production line in CSP production line are summarized. Provide help to reduce the longitudinal crack defects and improve the qualified rate of hot-rolled products.

    In view of the high fuel consumption for heating furnace in heavy plate production line of Baotou Steel, in the paper it is mainly analyzed six factors that affect the fuel consumption of heating furnace, including production efficiency, combustion efficiency, waste gas heat loss, furnace surface heat loss, slab heat recovery and slab discharge temperature. The fuel consumption of heating furnace is greatly reduced through seven rectification measures, such as reducing heating capacity, enhancing heat preservation, improving air gas mixing way, increasing slab charging temperature, decreasing slab discharge temperature, optimizing the cooling system for slab to be rolled and stabilizing furnace pressure.

    Adhesion defect is a common surface quality defect in cold-rolled coil. Slight adhesion will affect the appearance quality, and severe adhesion will cause strip steel cannot be used. In the paper, it is primarily analyzed the characteristics causing adhesion defects, then reasons for the occurrence of adhesion are judged through the probability of adhesion defects occurrence by comparing different coiling tension and annealing process. According to the actual product situation, summing up the way to eliminate the defect in cold-rolled coil surface.

    The open flame burner used in galvanizing furnace is now exposed to many defects as it is used for a long time. Since the production of building production line, there has been many times of brick falling in the NOF furnace, which seriously damaged the equipment in the furnace, and produced a lot of defects at the same time, which will lead to the strip breakage accident. Through reinforcing the connection between brick body and cover plate, changing the support method for supporting brick and optimizing refractory material layout, effectively reduce and control the occurrence of brick fall accident in annealing furnace.
