The investment will improve the efficiency of steel processing and decrease the use of coke.<\/h3>\n<p>One of West Welding\u2019s upcoming deliveries for next year is a 40-meter <strong>Hot Blast Stove<\/strong>. The Stove will be installed as part of the raw material processing unit. The function of the Stove is to blow extremely hot air (heated up to 1200 C\u00b0) into a Blast Furnace, where the smelting process takes place. Adding the Stove to the process will <strong>save energy and raw materials<\/strong> by using the heated air to maintain the temperature inside the Furnace.<\/p>\n<p>The Hot Blast Stove is in the core of West Welding\u2019s product base. West Welding has experience in delivering similar type of process equipment to steel mills. Most recent example of this is a Hot Blast Stove delivered to Sweden in 2019.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_895\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-895\" class=\"wp-image-895 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/new.westwelding.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/slovakia2-1024x684.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" srcset=\"https:\/\/westwelding.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/slovakia2-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/westwelding.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/slovakia2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/westwelding.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/slovakia2-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/westwelding.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/slovakia2-900x600.jpg 900w, https:\/\/westwelding.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/slovakia2.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-895\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">West Welding\u2019s Hot Blast Stove project installation in Oxel\u00f6sund, Sweden 2019.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Once assembled, the Stove will be massive in size \u2013 it will rise up to 40 meters and have a diameter of 9 meters.
