Innovative Energy Savings in Continuous Annealing Furnace
Increasing energy costs over the past few years have provided incentive for metallurgical thermal-processing companies to look for new ways to improve the efficiency of their furnaces.

Column
Energy Legislation and its Impact
One of the key discussion points from April’s IHEA meeting – Going Green – was energy (or emissions) intensity (EI) reduction. When you hear discussions of legislation to “control greenhouse gases,” be sure to identify whether the controls are absolute reductions in CO2 or if they are intensity reductions. The distinctions are key to healthy growth of our industry and our economy.

Energy Laws Doing More Harm than Good
In keeping with the theme of this issue, we need to address the U.S. energy crisis. It is a true predicament, will not get better quickly and presents problems caused by the “Gang of 535,” who is more responsible for the current situation than anyone else. But wait … it gets worse.

Proper Care and Feeding of Furnace Mesh Belts
Mesh belts come in all shapes, sizes, materials and weaves and are used for such diverse applications as case hardening, brazing, sintering and glass-to-metal sealing to name a few. Belts run at temperatures from near ambient to several thousand degrees. They are expected not only to work in the furnaces but also for external part conveyance or in water, oil, brine, polymer and salt quench tanks. Mesh belts are exposed to a multitude of furnace atmospheres ranging from air to pure hydrogen and can be exposed to oxidation, sulfidation, carburization and nitriding. They operate in environments spanning dew points from below -100°F to above +100°F. And most of us expect our belts to perform well beyond normal expectations. How do they survive, and how can we make them last even longer? Let’s learn more.
