The British company Tata Steel has launched a research initiative called ADAPT-EAF (Accelerating the development of automotive and packaging Steel Technology for Electric Arc Furnaces) to create a new generation of high-performance steel products using electric arc furnace (EDP) technology, aimed at Monday, July 14, the company said in a statement that ADAPT-EAF revolutionizes automotive body parts and packaging solutions such as food cans.
ADAPT-EAF brings together Tata Steel UK and the University of Cambridge, Imperial College London and the University of Warwick, reflecting Tata Steel's vision as a leader in environmentally friendly steel innovation in the UK. The United Kingdom, the statement said.
This announcement was made immediately after Tata Steel UK started developing a new EDP at its Port Talbot steel plant.
As the UK steel industry switches to EDF processes, ADAPT-EAF will solve the most important task related to the control of residual elements in steel with a high content of secondary raw materials, which can affect the quality and performance of steel used in the automotive industry and packaging.
As part of the project, an artificial intelligence-based platform will be developed to accurately predict how various wastes affect the quality of steel and its processing. This digital tool will be combined with rapid prototyping and testing of alloys to obtain important data and develop new steel grades optimized for EDP production.
In addition, Tata Steel UK and its academic partners will create a comprehensive digital and experimental platform for the development of innovative low-co₂ steel products. it said it could be produced in the UK.
