Abstract

Denitrogenation of steel melts with oxygen and sulphur was studied under reduced pressure by injection of argon. The rate of nitrogen desorption was found to obey a reaction of second order. The macrokinetic rate increases with increasing Ar flowrate until bubble coalescence occurs in the melts. The effects of sulphur and oxygen on nitrogen desorption were evaluated from the experimental data.The dimensionless rate constant for nitrogen is described by . A reasonable agreement was obtained in comparison with the results of other investigators.
