The research paper aims to develop a machine learning model to estimate the steel phosphorus content at the end of the scrap-based electric arc furnace process, which is expected to play a significant role in reducing environmental impacts through steel recycling. The authors collected data from a steel plant over two years, focusing on chemical composition and weight of scrap, oxygen injection volume, and process duration. They evaluated several machine learning models, with an artificial neural network (ANN) emerging as the most effective. The best ANN model included four hidden layers, achieving high accuracy metrics: mean square error (MSE) 0.000016, root-mean-square error (RMSE) 0.0049998, coefficient of determination (R2) 99.96%, and correlation coefficient (r) 99.98%. The optimized ANN model also achieved a 100% hit rate for predicting phosphorus content within ±0.001 wt% (+-10 ppm). This study demonstrates the potential of machine learning to improve steel production processes.

The paper aims to create a special computer program that can predict how much phosphorus is left in the steel at the end of a certain process called scrap-based electric arc furnace. They took data from a real steel plant over two years and tested different kinds of computer models. The best one was an artificial neural network, which means it works like a human brain but is made by computers. This special model can predict phosphorus levels with very high accuracy, which will help make the steel-making process more efficient.
