CED is directly affected by aluminum melting and steel manufacturing. This growth in these industries has significant effects on CED's global consumption. The use of carbon-based electrodes is a major part of the aluminum and steel manufacturing processes. The electrode paste is used to conduct electricity within an electric arc fusion furnace, melting raw metals and transforming them into final products. This electrode paste is made from electrically-calcined anthracite. The materials are optionally mixed with other carbon based materials in order to maximize its properties.
The carbon electrode paste market faces a major challenge in maintaining the price of primary raw materials used to make CED. These raw material price changes can impact the overall CED market sales.
The CED industry also faces the challenge of keeping up with rising energy costs and balancing this with cost effective methods for production. Growing industrialization and rapid manufacturing growth in Asia has been fueling the CED demand in recent years.
One of the most important factors influencing the CED Market is the availability and affordability of the appropriate technologies for monitoring and managing electrode arcs, such as slipping algorithm to control the paste temperature in Soderberg-type electrodes and the bake zone. Paste addition techniques that reduce excessive levels of soft paste leading to Stokes segregation and other problems are essential.
In order to accurately measure the temperature of electrodes, it's essential that any surface imperfections and defects are removed from the sensor surface. It is important that the surface of the electrode sensor be made out of pure carbon.
Cutting the sample into pieces of certain thickness and radius is a simple way to assess thermal conductivity. To perform the measurements, a hot disk sensor will be placed between upper and lower sections of each sample. It is necessary to use an electric pulse in order to turn on the sensor. The temperature rise is then recorded over time. The curve obtained is used to measure the conductivity.
