Request a sales quoteTheory and Methods of Metallurgical Process Integration analyzes the basic elements and characteristics of steel manufacturing processes and operation, also proposing a theory of precise dynamic design and integration of steel plants. Following several case studies, a new generation steel manufacturing process is proposed.
Through deep description and analysis of the dynamic operation of the steel manufacturing process, this book can help readers understand that the study of dynamic integration for the "mass-energy-time-space-information" during the steel manufacturing process has to be highly emphasized in order to further promote optimization of the steel manufacturing process and plant.
- Extends the research methodology and future direction of the metallurgical process
- Concentrates on the study of the physical essence and the running rules of the dynamic operation of the steel manufacturing process
- Summarizes six rules for the dynamic operation of the steel manufacturing process for newly-built or existing steel plants, which provides useful guidance for engineering design, production technology, and production and technology management
Teachers and students in the field of metallurgy and materials in colleges and universities; Senior engineers in iron and steel research institutes; R&D staff, managers and directors in steel plants.

Ruiyu Yin
Professor Ruiyu Yin graduated from University of Science & Technology Beijing in 1957, and has more than 50 year experiences on metallurgical engineering. He worked for National Bureau of Metallurgical Engineering of China as an engineer, researcher, manager and vice-minister for a long time. Since 1990’s, he paid his efforts to the popularization of key iron making and steelmaking technologies in China, such as continuous casting, PCI, technology for the elongation of BF campaigns, continuous rolling of long products, slag splashing and comprehensive energy savings by means of structure optimizing of production process. He proposed three functions of steel plants: steel product manufacturing, high efficient energy transformation and recycling of industrial wastes. Since the year of 2000, he plays an important role in designing and establishment of new generation steel manufacturing processes. He also engaged in the study of engineering philosophy and published 3 books, Metallurgical Process Engineering, Philosophy of Engineering and Theory of Engineering Evolution.
