Abstract
Secondary steelmaking becomes especially important, and the dominant way of metallurgy development apparently will be plants revamping. Major necessity in secondary steelmaking modernization exists also at foreign metallurgical plants which have lots of ladle vacuum units including the outdated ones. That is why the ability of quick, cost effective and efficient enhancement of the existing ladle vacuum units that might be based on VDF/VODF process and equipment has good implementation prospects not only in Russia but in many metallurgical plants of former Soviet Union and abroad.
