Everything you need to know about LRF Process Optimizer
It is a web-based software platform for secondary metallurgy. It calculates precise alloy additions, slag former charges, desulphurisation, dephosphorisation, deoxidation, and process parameters for Ladle Refining Furnace operations.
Steel plant metallurgists, ladle furnace operators, process engineers, and production managers who need fast, accurate charge calculations for secondary steelmaking.
New accounts get 100 free heat calculations with no credit card required. You can explore core features including cost dashboard, alloy additions, and predicted chemistry before subscribing.
Alloy additions with recovery corrections, slag former optimization, two-stage desulphurisation, dephosphorisation with iron ore dosing, aluminium and silicon deoxidation, carbon balance, process scheduling, cost analysis, and a full metallurgical KPI dashboard.
The engine is built on established metallurgical models — Wagner interaction parameters, slag basicity and sulphide capacity, phosphorus partition, and deoxidation equilibria. However, all outputs are decision-support only and should be verified by a qualified metallurgist against your plant practice.
Subscriptions are billed per plant — $1,200/month or $10,500/year (saving 27%). Each subscription covers one plant.
Each subscription covers one plant. For multiple plants, separate subscriptions are required. Contact us for multi-plant arrangements.
