In the Central Laboratory of Microscopy of the Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM), measurements were made to characterize processed samples of waste from the SIDERPERÚ plant (Chimbote, Peru) to provide information on methods of recovering obsolete steel. The 7800F Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) was used under the direction of Dr. D.

Thanks to this study, we verified the composition of the samples, affirming that the elements are distributed homogeneously and comply with the required composition standard.

摘要

In the Central Laboratory of Microscopy of the Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM), measurements were made to characterize processed samples of waste from the SIDERPERÚ plant (Chimbote, Peru) to provide information on methods of recovering obsolete steel. The 7800F Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) was used under the direction of Dr. D. Acosta on samples from the electric furnace and continuous casting from SIDERPERU, Chimbote, Peru, which were processed to reach ASTM A36 and ASTM A615 standards. The superficial images obtained in the SEM equipment show that a better consolidation has been obtained in the extrusion of ASTM A615 than with the process followed for the sample called ASTM A36. In addition, the energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer confirms the presence of Fe, O, Mn and Si and impurities in a small proportion. Thanks to this study, we verified the composition of the samples, affirming that the elements are distributed homogeneously and comply with the required composition standard.
