Optimised Aluminium Smelting System

ZPF GmbH/DE was established in 2013 from ZPF therm Maschinenbau GmbH/DE, which was founded in 1993, and – like its predecessor – focuses on the development, design and manufacture of highly efficient aluminium melting furnaces. The product range also includes chip melting and holding furnaces. Increas­ing the energy efficiency of aluminium smelting was the aim of a BMWi­-funded cooperative project. Burner air preheating by means of a heat exchanger can significantly reduce gas consumption. Increased flame temperature enables process time reduction and further utilisation of exhaust heat – a plus for the environment.

Cement-Free Refractory Concretes for Stress-Reduced Structures

Dedicated to the 10th Anniversary of refractories WORLDFORUM Refractory concretes have significantly increased their importance for the production of steel, aluminium, cement, lime and the like. Thus, more and more their properties have come into focus, so not only the installation behaviour is important, but drying-out and heating-up procedure and performance regarding thermomechanical and thermochemical behaviour as well.  

Refractories, Furnaces and Thermal Insulations

The Faculty of Metallurgy of the Technical University of Košice has regularly organized the international scientific conference on “Refractories, Furnaces and Thermal Insulations” in Tatras/SK, in a two-year periodicity. The 10th conference on the subject was held in April 2018 at the Congress Center of Hotel Grand in Jasná, Low Tatras.
