The application of the FLOGEN Decision Making, Control and Optimization system in an electric furnace for the production of FeSiMn alloy, made possible to simultaneously optimize electrical resistance of the furnace, reduce specific energy consumption, reduce MnO losses in the slag from and average of 14% to 5-8%, to better control of alloy specifications with much greater flexibility in using multiple and low quality raw materials. This paper will present the general features and control system as well as the main results
