The goal of this project is to design a heat recovery system for ArcelorMittal Dofasco’s (AMD)
steel-making plant in order to convert waste heat into power. This will result in lower operating
costs and a lower environmental impact for AMD and represent one more step forward for Hatch
in the area of industrial applications of heat recovery systems. The first intern will identify heat
sources in the process, analyze potential heat recovery systems, integrate a proposed system
with the current process and model the heat transfer equipment The second intern will prepare
a Computer-Aided Design (CAD) model of the main equipment and perform structural analysis,
material and equipment selection, and analysis of safety issues and risk management The two
interns will collaborate on equipment selection and investigate the feasibility of the proposed
heat recovery system in terms of its impact on the steel-production process, operating costs and
payback period.
