German term or phrase: Tiefstentschwefelung
Hier wird die Modernisierung und Erweiterung einer Roheisenentschwefelungsanlage behandelt:

Lag der Zielschwefelgehalt zu Beginn der Entwicklung bei Schwefelgehalten von 0,015 - 0,020 %, so gehört heute die **Tiefstentschwefelung** des Roheisens auf Schwefelgehalte < 0,005 % zum Standardprozess vieler Stahlwerke.

neutral  Bernd Runge: Hi David, isn't maximum desulphurisation the equivalent to "Tief(en)entschwefelung", which is limited to values upt to 0.005%? So, best level would be the better choice, I think.
2 hrs
  -> No; "Tief.." is merely a "high level of...", not maximum. Maximum and best here are synonymous.
neutral  Harry Borsje: Wouldn't you say Tiefst- is synonymous with ultra-low (assuming there's no scientific limit to the the degree of desulphirisation, just that this is current state of the art)
6 hrs
  -> And wouldn't YOU agree that "ultra-low" means best possible, or maximum level of, desulphurisation which we are (currently) capable od attaining - IOW "state-of-the-art"???

neutral  David Moore (X): No . this is not the "best/optimum" - that doesn't say enough, IMO // I make that "Tief**entschwefelung", not "Tief*ST*..."

  -> Why does it have to be "best/optimum"? Deep is the terminology used for the process.
