The dephosphorization effects of CaF2 replaced by B2O3 were investigated. The dephosphorization experiments were carried out at 1 450 ℃ in air atmosphere. The results show that the melting points and dephosphorization ratios change little when CaF2 was replaced by B2O3. The dephosphorization ratios are all greater than 80% and melting points can meet the requirement of hot metal pretreatment. Because of the change of alkalinity caused by B2 03, the oxidation of slag increases with increasing of B2 Oa contents. It is beneficial to pre-dephosphorization. As a result, for decreasing its pollution, CaF2 can be replaced by B2Oa to dispose fluoride-free pre-dephosphorization slag.展开更多

However, developing appropriate metallurgical processes to achieve effective dephosphorization of Nb-bearing hot metal meanwhile retaining Nb in the steel products remains a challenge. We carried out a thermodynamic study on dephosphorization of Nbbearing hot metal and investigated the effects of the initial [C] content and the dephosphorization temperature on oxidation behaviors of [Nb] and [P]. In particular, we focused on thermodynamic analysis of dephosphorization of Nb-bearing hot metal with highly basic BaO-based slag. The results showed that the highly basic BaO-based slag system is more suitable for dephosphorization under oxidative conditions, and increasing the [C] content favors dephosphorization of Nb-bearing hot metal without oxidizing [Nb]. Moreover, the values of equilibrium oxygen activity for oxidation reactions of [Nb] and [P] are increased as the dephosphorization temperature increases. Considering the hot metal containing 0.02% of [Nb] in Baotou Steel, thermodynamic calculations indicated that the content of [P] can be reduced to 0.02%–0.05% and [Nb] remains unoxidized when dephosphorization occurs at the cconditions of T=1573–1673 K, [C]=4.0%, [Nb]=0.02%, aP2O5=10-24, aNb2O5=10-10.展开更多

The w[P] can be less than 0.030% at the end of De-P converter and 0.006% at the end of De-C converter. The w[N] in steel can be less than 15×10-6 at the stirring station. This production line can make clean steel steadily used for auto sheet or pipeline, for example X65 MS. The De-C slag was left in the converter for the next heat and recycled to De-P converter to reduce lime consumption, which has a great benefit for the cost saving.展开更多

The FexO activities show a significant dependence upon the molar ratio of BaO/BaF2. Within the homogeneous liquid region, the substitution of BaF2 for BaO has an effect of raising the FexO activity. From these activity data, the phase diagrams of the system BaO -BaF2-FexO are drawn at 1473K and 1573K. The temperature dependence of the activity coefficient of FexO at a fixed BaO/ BaF2 molar ratio can be expressed by formula RTlnγ(FexO)=constant.展开更多

The variation mechanism was studied by comprehensive analysis of total oxygen, nitrogen, and acid soluble aluminum as well as chemical test of refining slag. Based on the investigations, technical measures for cleanness improvement were discussed. The resuhs show that oxide inclusions in H13 steel change from irregular Al2O3- near globular CaO-MgO-Al2O3 and CaO-Al2O3-SiO2 complex inclusions-finer CaO- Al2O3-SiO2 inclusions with higher CaO content-CaO-Al2O3-SiO2 inclusions with higher Al2O3 content and irregular MgO-AI203 inclusions--fine irregular MgO-Al2O3-CaS inclusions in various steps of the production; the variations are related with changes of acid soluble aluminum content, reactions between slag and steel, re-oxidation of liquid steel during casting, and refining of ESR. It is also found that Al2O3 inclusions are modified by refining slag in LF and VD refining~ and ESR plays a good role in inclusion removal, especially in controlling the large linear VC-CrC- MoC inclusions distributed in grain boundaries. It is suggested that casting protection should be improved, and the basicity of refining slag and acid soluble aluminum content in steel should be raised.展开更多

The slag with a narrow difference between the two temperatures is termed a “Short Slag”. Its formation ensures higher rates of slag-metal reactions with the trickle of the slag soon after its formation exposing fresh mass for faster reactions, the trickling slag, creating fresh interfaces facilitating slag-metal exchanges. In the present work, a novel technique is adopted to determine the flow characteristics of blast furnace slag obtained from different industrial blast furnaces. It is seen that the results so obtained agree very closely with the values obtained from adopting conventional methods of determining the liquidus temperature using “slag atlas”. It is observed that under the range of compositions studied a high C/S ratio combined with a high MgO content in the slag is beneficial to the B.F. process as it renders a “short slag”.展开更多

Based on thermodynamic analysis, the oxi- dation resistance of BN-MgAION composites was investigated and the dynamics of oxidation process was also ana- lyzed. The oxidation process and the micro-morphology of the samples before and after oxidation were characterized by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The dynamics of oxidation resistance of the BN-MgA1ON composites was investigated via the analysis of the constant temperature oxidation mass gain curves. The results show that the main components of the material are MgA1ON, Sialon, BN and CaYAI3 07 at 1 650--1750 ＊C, and the content of CaYA1307 decreases as the sintering temperature increases. The BN-MgA1ON composites prepared at 1750 ℃ is uniform and compact with the balanced distributions of A1, Mg, O, and N. The oxidation process of BN- MgA1ON composites in air mainly consists of MgAION, Sialon and BN oxidation. The section after being oxidized at 1000--1300 ℃ involves three layers, namely, the outer layer, the middle layer and the inner layer. The oxidation process follows the parabola model. The apparent activation energy of the oxidation process is 2.13 × 10 5 J/mol and the frequency factor is 4.66 × 10 6.展开更多

For pre treatment of hot metal, both desulphurization and dephosphorization are improved with the increase of CaO in slag, but deteriorated with the increase of CaF 2 in slag. The average desulphurization and dephosphorization rate is 68 83 % and 78 46 %, respectively. For molten steel, the substitution of BaO for CaO in slag has minor effect on simultaneous desulphurization and dephosphorization.
