Oxide dust generated from the rolling process is a big problem for most rolling mills, especially those rolling high-silicon or high-carbon products. A system has been developed and installed to effectively control the oxide dust from the rolling operations. Effective control of the oxide dust results in significantly reduced oxide dust–related defects to the strip. The system utilizes an air/water mixture with specifically proportioned design to encapsulate and control dust particles without affecting cooling or quality of the rolled product. This paper will discuss the features of the system and the results of an actual installation.
