Abstract

Fused magnesia is an essential basic material for metal making and construction industries. Fused magnesia is usually produced with mineral arc furnace. In China, 1600 kVA arc furnaces are widely used as fused magnesia production facility. The unit power consumption for magnesia production is about 3000 kWh/t, higher than that in developed countries. In this research, a 3000 kVA new arc furnace was used to produce fused magnesia, and the unit consumption decreased to 2560kWh/t. The experimental results showed that the new furnace has good energy saving effect and market prospects.
