N2 - The formation of freeze lining (FL), a protective layer of solidified slag,holds significant economic value in industrial processes by safeguarding furnacereactors and refractories from corrosive molten slag and providing a thermalbarrier that minimizes energy consumption. To deepen our comprehension of FLformation, a collaborative research project has been undertaken, bringingtogether academic partners from the University of Leoben (Austria) and theUniversity of Leuven (Belgium), alongside industrial partners RHI Magnesita andAurubis-Beerse. This collaboration has led to the development of a novelcomputational fluid dynamic (CFD) model capable of simulating FL formationacross a broad range of applications. The model has undergone rigorous testing,ranging from controlled laboratory experiments to industrial processes, thatvalidated its robustness and versatility. This model framework provides a solidfoundation that should be expanded with new fundamental knowledge of FLformation and validated in other relevant industrial settings.
