Baotou Steel has called on CISDI’s expertise to create a smart green stockyard for its sintering plant in Inner Mongolia.

The stockyard will provide complete services for the sintering machine, which takes up an area of 265m².

It will encompass a primary yard, a blending yard, and blending and proportioning, fuel and flux crushing and screening, transporting and utilities systems.

The main yard span is 145m, with a length of 280m.

Multi-layer stacking and reclaiming processes will be enabled by a blending stacker and a bridge scraper blending reclaimer.

Fuel and flux will be crushed and screened by an enclosed loop.

These technologies will ensure stability of the blended ores, as required by sintering production.

A large-power belt conveyor will be driven by a permanent magnetic drum, which will reduce energy consumption and enhance productivity.

To create ultra-low emissions and make Baotou Steel greener and more energy-efficient, multiple clean tech will be built in and monitoring measures will be taken - including mechanical downdraught dust collection, mist-spraying dust suppression and multi-stage cleaning.

CISDI’s expertise in smart production management, information integration and smart control will be applied so the stockyard can carry out automatic proportioning and unmanned stacking.
