The Effect of Slag Modeling to Improve Steelmaking Processes
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper attempts to illustrate the benefits of using slag models based on the thermodynamics of steelmaking reactions and the multi-dimensional modeling of phase equilibria. The use of mass balance calculations and the application of these personal computer-based slag models to the refinement of standard operating procedures can simultaneously result in shorter process times, more predictable metallurgical results, and lower refractory costs.

The effective parameters on thermal recovery and reduction of iron oxides in EAF slag
Steelmaking slag of Mobarakeh Steel Company (MSC) has a high iron content which makes it unsuitable for conventional slag recovery; as in cement industries. On the other hand, EAF slag in this company is almost free of zinc because of using more than 90 percent DRI in the charge. Therefore, removal or recovery of iron from the slag can be a suitable solution to slag recovery in this company. In...
متن کاملUtilization of ironmaking and steelmaking slags
smelting of hammerable iron and its treatment in antiquity and Medieval produced also by-product: slag. Because of small yields of iron the process produced only small amounts of slag that did not attract attention of smelters concerning its possible use. the use of slag pieces was only accidental. a lot of slag pieces and blocks from slag pit shaft furnaces were used as a material for mound bu...
متن کاملInvestigations of Calcium Aluminate Slag Penetration to MgO Monolithic Refractories in Steelmaking Process
In this study, slag penetration into a magnesia refractory monolithic was investigated by the crucible test method. A synthetic calcium aluminate slag system has been used to study commercial magnesia mix refractory for 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 hours at 1450°C and 1600°C. It has been shown that the penetration rate is controlled by a diffusion mechanism at 1450°C. In this case, capillaries are the ...
متن کاملComputer Simulation of Slag Splashing in a Steelmaking Converter
Some variables that influence the slag splashing phenomenon in an oxygen steelmaking converter are numerically analyzed in this work. The effect of lance height, jet velocity, jet exit angle and slag viscosity on the washing and ejection mechanisms of slag splashing is studied in this work employing twodimensional transient computational fluid dynamics simulations. A parameter here called avera...
متن کاملRecovery of calcium carbonate from steelmaking slag and utilization for acid mine drainage pre-treatment.
The conversion of steelmaking slag (a waste product of the steelmaking process) to calcium carbonate (CaCO(3)) was tested using hydrochloric acid, ammonium hydroxide and carbon dioxide via a pH-swing process. Batch reactors were used to assess the technical feasibility of calcium carbonate recovery and its use for pre-treatment of acid mine drainage (AMD) from coal mines. The effects of key pro...
