Student Information
Ironmaking and steelmaking activities are excellent examples of chemical processes taken beyond the textbooks and laboratory and implemented in industry on a grand scale.
The pickling process uses hot acid solution to remove oxides and scale from steel to ensure good surface quality in cold rolling and in other manufacturing processes.
A reactor is a vessel where a controlled chemical reaction can take place. The acid regeneration plant reactor is a vertical cylindrical mild steel shell with a coned bottom and shallow dished roof.
