Steel
In steel manufacturing, the iron content in iron ore is reduced through contact with the carbon in coke, producing pig iron.
Various gases are given off throughout every step of the process, such as sintering, coke, and blast furnace processes.
Key aspects of gas monitoring include detecting toxic gases such as carbon monoxide and sulfur dioxide, even in small amounts, and reusing byproduct gases as an energy source.
Our Strengths
Streamlined Gas Detection for Superior Safety
We develop sensors and gas detectors optimized for the steel industry, including:
・Hydrogen Interference-Resistant CO Sensor:
In conventional CO detection, hydrogen in the gas composition would react with the CO sensor, leading to false alarms. We've developed a proprietary sensor that detects CO accurately, even in the presence of 500 ppm hydrogen, ensuring reliable monitoring.
・Multi-Gas Detection Including SO2:
Dedicated SO2 gas detectors can be costly and cumbersome for workers to wear. Our gas detectors can detect multiple components—including hydrogen, methane, hydrogen sulfide, carbon monoxide, oxygen, carbon dioxide, and sulfur dioxide (SO₂)—all in one device. This helps lower management costs and improve worker safety while keeping the number of devices to a minimum.
