Is the energy recovery capturing furnace tail gas into a waste-heat boiler to supply the pellet dryer and site steam, or is most of it exported as electricity? Also, how are you handling SOx and particulate to limit fouling and corrosion in the heat recovery train, for example upstream scrubbing or high-alloy WHB tubes?
