electric arc furnace production route(【技】以废钢为主要炉料，采用电弧炉和连铸机生产近终形铸坯，进而生产出钢材的生产流程。由于它省去了电弧炉工艺前的烧结、球团、炼焦、炼铁等生产工序，使钢铁生产的流程缩短，"短流程"由此得名。在英、美等国家把这类采用短流程的钢铁企业称之为"小钢厂" (mini-mill), 而实际上由于追求规模效益，其中使用的电弧炉多为 loot 级的，炉子吨位并不小。)
EAF based route(For an EAF based route, the capital cost per tonne of annual capacity is in the range of $ 140-200 / tonne, but for a Blast Furnace-BOF based route, the capital cost is approximately $ 1000. 对于电弧炉生产流程，按年生产能力计算的吨钢投资为 140 -200 美元，而对于高炉-氧气顶吹转炉生产流程，吨钢投资约为1000美元。)
short-flame burner(The ignition furnace has short-flame burners and the heat is transmitted to the bed almost entirely by convection. 点火炉配备有短焰燃烧器，通过对流几乎能将全部热量传到铺底料。)
short roller barrel(分节辊的: Thanks to the narrow roller spacing and the short roller barrel, the problems of roller wobble and wear have practically disappeared. 由于采用了小辊距和短辊身，辊子晃动和磨损问题在实际上已得到解决。)
