Abstract

The study of ternary phases systems in pyrometallurgy is used for the adequate formation of slags, because they are an important foundation in establishing the conditions of operation in the separation of undesired elements. In this area, the CaO - FeO - SiO2 system is generally used for the determination of liquidus temperature and other properties mainly in the metallurgy of Pb and Fe. In this article we review the main properties of this system, such as density, surface tension and electrical conductivity. In addition, a compilation is carried out on the values obtained from the viscosity made by different authors at different compositions and temperatures, in order to verify the interaction that each component delivers to the equilibrium of the system. Through this research, the aim is to obtain the knowledge to predict the behavior of the slag that leads to making the decisions that improves the processes and this is only through reliable and consistent information.
