Abstract

The results of the experimental verification of the efficiency of complex out-of-furnace treatment of low carbon steel using a test mixture based on man-made waste, which is fed partly to the melting unit at the end of the oxidation period of melting and partly by pouring under a stream of liquid metal. is the use of slag-forming materials obtained by joint heat treatment of mixtures of components containing the above mentioned oxides and carbonaceous material of vegetable origin. Their weight ratio in the initial mixture is determined by the purpose and properties of the finished product. The positive technological effects that are achieved by applying the developed method of after-treatment will in future provide favorable conditions for the effective conduct of microalloying, modification, vacuuming and stable casting of low-quality and ultra-low carbon steel. A slight decrease in the temperature of the steel intermediate in the implementation of the method is about 10 - 15 ° C, which is easily compensated for the installation of the ladle, and a slight increase in electricity consumption is compensated by the effects achieved in the processing of low-carbon steel intermediate. Obtaining a higher degree of desulfurization and deoxidation of steel, as well as reducing the contamination of Al2O3 steel and improving the ecological purity of the process can be achieved by reducing the composition of the SHS used in the first stage of processing, the amount of slag aluminothermal production of ferromanganese and complete exclusion of melting, melting weight ratios of powdered waste production of lime, aluminum-thermal slag production of ferromanganese, sludge neutralization of electrocorundum and carbide cr emnia.
