This paper investigates erosion behaviors of Al2O3-SiC-SiO2-C (ASSC) castable refractory in a 2650 m3 blast furnace hearth. Post-service residual thickness measurements, conducted via 3D laser scanning and manual gauging across multiple hearth orientations with radial sampling at 8.7 m and 6.7 m elevations, revealed critical erosion zones at the "elephant foot" region (1.5-2 m below taphole centerline) and furnace bottom. Minimum residual thicknesses were recorded at 300 mm (sidewall) and 160 mm (bottom), with erosion rates reaching 81.99 % (314.6 mm/yr) and 84.00 % (168.0 mm/yr), respectively. The 3D erosion profile exhibited a distinctive "shallow pot-bottom" morphology, where measured thicknesses exceeded theoretical predictions by approximately 50 mm. Scanning Electron Microscopy-Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (SEM-EDS) analysis elucidated erosion mechanisms: The taphole area exhibited tri-layered degradation from molten iron, slag, and harmful elemental penetration, while the elephant foot region showed predominant iron and elemental infiltration. Design recommendations include increasing ASSC layer thickness in taphole and elephant foot zones, along with thermocouple integration for realtime monitoring. Operational strategies to prolong refractory lifespan involve maintaining saturated carbon/silicon content in hot metal, controlling charge impurities, and implementing regular alkali removal protocols. These findings provide mechanistic insights for optimizing hearth design and operational practices in large-scale blast furnaces.
An autopsy of a 2650 m(3) Al2O3-SiC-SiO2-C type castable blast furnace was conducted in this study, where castable samples from various heights after service were obtained through manual sampling. The phase composition and micromorphology of the post-service castable samples were analyzed using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS). The research revealed that the erosion of the castable in the region above the taphole centerline on the side wall of the hearth exhibited characteristics of hot-face slag erosion and cold-face harmful element erosion. Below the taphole centerline, the castable demonstrated a combination of hot-face slag-iron erosion and cold-face harmful element erosion. In the region above the taphole centerline, high-melting-point slag phases such as magnesium aluminum spinel, anorthite, and calcium aluminosilicate formed and adhered to the hot face of the castable, preventing further erosion by molten iron and harmful elements. In the region below the taphole centerline, the castable reacted with high-temperature molten iron, causing the reaction products to dissolve into the molten iron, which led to structural damage of the castable. Harmful elements such as K, Na, and Zn diffused into the cold end in the form of vapor along the damaged areas, condensed, and then reacted with the castable to form potassium-sodium feldspar, garnet, as well as zinc oxide and zinc sulfide. The volume expansion resulting from these reactions caused damage to the cold face of the castable.
The brittle layer of carbon brick in a Chinese 4000 m 3 blast furnace hearth is investigated in detail, and its formation mechanism is proposed correspondingly. The occurrence form of the brittle layer in carbon brick is characterized by chemical analysis, X‐ray diffraction, and scanning electron microscopy–energy dispersive spectroscopy. The results show that obvious harmful element (K, Na, and Zn) erosion on the sidewall of the blast furnace hearth is observed, in which Zn erosion is dominant. The K 2 O, Na 2 O, and KCl produced in the carbon brick by K and Na are the inducement of the brittle layer formation, and the ZnO formed by Zn is the main reason for the brittle layer formation. The thermal stress caused by temperature gradients in carbon brick is greater than its bending strength, which will increase the microcracks in carbon brick. The brittle layer has a lower thermal conductivity due to higher porosity, resulting in a large temperature difference. The resulting thermal stress will aggravate the embrittlement degree.

The three-dimensional (3D) model of erosion state of blast furnace (BF) hearth was obtained by using 3D laser scanning method. The thickness of refractory lining can be measured anywhere and the erosion curves were extracted both in the circumferential and height directions to analyze the erosion characteristics. The results show that the most eroded positions located below 20# tuyere with an elevation of 7700 mm and below 24#–25# tuyere with an elevation of 8100 mm, the residual thickness here is only 295 mm. In the circumferential directions, the serious eroded areas located between every two tapholes while the taphole areas were protected well by the bonding material. In the height directions, the severe erosion areas located between the elevation of 7600 mm to 8200 mm. According to the calculation, the minimum depth to ensure the deadman floats in the hearth is 2581 mm, corresponding to the elevation of 7619 mm. It can be considered that during the blast furnace production process, the deadman has been sinking to the bottom of BF hearth and the erosion areas gradually formed at the root of deadman.

Automatic ship detection from SAR remote sensing imagery is very important, with a wide array of applications in areas such as national marine safety, vessel traffic services, and naval warfare. However, SAR remote sensing images with the high inhomogeneity of sea clutter and complex scene result in a large number of false alarms. This paper focuses on the problem of false alarm removal and coverts it as a classification problem with respect to ship targets and false alarms. However, in real application: (1) Compared to false alarms the number of ships is much smaller, and (2) false alarms with diverse categories and no uniform characteristics are difficult to be distinguished from ships. To solve the problems above, we present a new method based on one-class SVM (OCSVM) combined with grid optimization that only use the data of ships to train classifier in the absence of false alarms. First, 2P-CFAR is adopted to extract ship candidates and 14 features mainly focusing on ship targets are selected. Second, grid optimization is exploited to obtain parameters for OC-SVM training, where it is a compromise between the probability of false alarm and detection rate. Experimental results of OC-SVM on a large SAR image set demonstrate that in comparison with other state-of-the-art methods like SVM, BP neural network, our approach can achieve higher detection accuracy.
