Possibilities of Iron Reduction in EAF Steel Melting and Control of the Furnace Thermal Balance
Spoke about the thermodynamic of iron reduction from electric arc furnace slag, adding aluminum-containing high-alumina mixture. The calculation of the heat balance of redox reactions. Using technology with adding in an electric smelting furnace aluminum-containing high-alumina mixture in the period of melting, can translate some of the iron from the slag to the metal, the heat of reaction reduces the energy consumption, and reduces cycles of melting, increases productivity of the furnace.
