| The MINCO
Slag Sampler is a major step forward in the analysis of
slag. Using MINCO slag samples, results are possible within
3-5 minutes, giving the steelmaker the opportunity to effect
immediate slag treatment to improve the steelmaking process.
The slag sampler is immersed into the liquid slag and yields
a solid coin sample which can be instantly analysed either
by laser spectrometry or X-ray.

| The innovation in
direct slag sampling
- The application of the MINCO Slag Sampler enables quick
slag analysis. The time from taking the sample to the
reported analysis is comparable to steel analysis, indeed
faster as no sample preparation is required. Sample to
analysis time can be around 3 to 5 minutes giving the
steelmaker the possibility of immediate process additions.
- As slag sample preparation is not required there is
reduced laboratory running costs and the sample can be
handled by modern automated laboratory equipment.
- The sampling method is safer and more reliable than
the traditional routine of immersing steel rods or chains
and can be used on automatic sampling hoists.
- Applications include blast furnace slag runners, steel
converters, ladles and secondary steelmaking plants.
