- This increase can result from the use of oxygen for another technical purpose, such as for example the air enrichment dedicated to the preheating of the stoves.
- the increase in oxygen requirements can lead to the construction of a new oxygen production unit, be it a cryogenic air separation unit, or by so-called VPSA processes.
- each blast furnace being powered by at least one of at least one of the n + 1 compressors available, at least one of the compressors that do not feed a blast furnace (hereinafter referred to as the second compressor) is used.
