The advantages of the introduction of a prereduction stage include enabling the more efficient use of fines and the achievement of higher energy efficiencies. A solid state reduction using carbon as the reductant offers a simpler alternative for their treatment. Subsequent treatment of the reduced material could include intensive bath smelting to produce ferroalloys or, in some case, solid state separation of the transition metal carbide where this has commercial significance.展开更多

The phosphate capacity of the slags and the activity coefficient of PO2. 5were calculated from the phosphorus distribution ratio. The effect of addition of Ca F2 and / or Ca Cl2 on the thermodynamic properties of slags was discussed. The correlation of optical basicity with phosphate capacity of slags was studied,and the dephosphorization ability of Ca O-based fluxes with various additives was compared with the results from different studies.展开更多

The electromagnetic force is the main driving force for the flow formation in the ESR slag pool, and the temperature difference in the pool creates a convective flow in the system. The shape of the electrode tip has an effect on electromagnetic field distribution in slag pool, thus affects the flow pattern. Finally an improved mathematical model of slag pool flow was proposed.展开更多
