Minteq International Inc.’s (MINTEQ’s) proprietary Deep Lance technology delivers the ultimate calcium recovery, in combination with our world-class Pferrocal® calcium metal treatment wire. Through proprietary application equipment, superior product technology, and 20 years of experience, we provide the highest-quality calcium treatment at the lowest cost per ton of steel. This in turn provides the steel maker with the following benefits:
- Most efficient means of injecting calcium
- Maximum calcium recovery, by delivering the solid core calcium metal wire deep into the steel ladle
- Improved and repeatable castability, thanks to consistent recovery of steel
- Lower cost per ton of steel treatment, thanks to increased calcium recovery rates
MINTEQ’s application-technology team custom-designs the Deep Lance technology for each steel ladle site. The system is electro-mechanically controlled by PLC and can be integrated into the steel-making operation. This allows for enhanced equipment availability, quicker turnaround of steel ladles, and grade optimization via precision control.
