Energy efficiency optimization ICT (Information and Communication Technology) solutions are currently being developed for energy saving in buildings and, to some extent, also for the manufacturing domain. This paper describes an approach and ICT tool developed for manufacturing process energy efficiency optimization, in particular focused on the heat treatment process of steel casting parts. Tr...

alloy steel, which is versatile in such qualities as grade, property and application, can play an important role in the technical and economic development of the country. the present consumption of the key industrial sector to this strategic material, specified basically as semi- finished products exceeds 100,000 tons per year. however, a rough estimation of the true potential needs, does clear...

Iron and steel industry is a crucial basic section for most of the industrial activities. This industry provides the primary materials for construction, automobile, machinery and many other businesses. Furthermore, the iron and steel manufacturing is highly energy consuming. The influence of an efficient process control on the cost and energy reduction and environmental effects in iron and stee...

the hot charging of continuously cast slabs steel is usually considered an effective method to reduce theenergy consumption in the hot rolling mills. in this work the application and optimizing of hot charging ofcontinuously cast slab in mobareke steel company has been investigated. mathematical relationship betweenthe cooling time of the stack of slabs and its mass average temperature is descr...

Wholesale affiliates account for a significant share of the foreign earnings of multinational firms. Yet little is known about them since empirical work on multinationals typically focuses on manufacturing affiliates. Instead, it has been presupposed that wholesale affiliates are a form of exporting by the parent company, and not a form of foreign direct investment. This paper presents evidence...

From the end of the 19th century, the development of a process for manufacturing thin plastic films was tightly linked to the emerging industry for movies and photographic films. 5 mil (125 micron) film was produced using a discontinuous device with a caster moving over 200 feet long glass plates at Eastman KODAK [1]. Soon, first patents were issued to cast celluloid films on a moving surface b...
