The beginning
• 1998The Spirit of IJmuidenRoman Weber
• A co-operation between–Royal Dutch Iron
and Steel (KNHS)–British - BISRA –French – IRSID
• Steel industry research
1948The original research furnace at IJmuiden, NLon the terrain of KNHS

Early development
• Mission - Flames for industry– Combustion equipment
• First fuel - “Heavy Fuel Oil”
• First industry:– Iron and Steel industry– Application of research results in industry by
industry• First National Committees:
– France, Netherlands and the UK
• Development through the National Committee structure

Milestones
• 1955 - Pulverised coal research– Later Natural Gas, Biofuels, LCV gases, prepared
wastes• 1970 - 1975 - Low NOx burner research – US EPA
– First semi-industrial scale tests - First application 1977
• Late 1970s– Low NOx combustion/Poor-”New” fuels utilisation
• Mid 1980s - IEA Coal Sciences Programme– Canada, Germany, Netherlands and UK
• Early 1990s - Direct Iron making – Corus (Hoogovens)• Mid to Late 1990s – Oxygen and Regenerative
Combustion
