Abstract
The chemical equilibria of gas-slag-metal reactions have been discussed to clarify the applicability of LUMSDEN'S regular solution model to oxygen distribution in steelmaking process. The slage studied are FetO-CaO, FetO-CaO-SiO2, FetO-MgO-SiO2, FetO-(CaO+MgO)-SiO2 and FetO-(CaO+MgO)-P2O5 systems. The influence of slag composition on the activity of iron oxide and the Fe3+/Fe2+ ratio has been discussed.It has been confirmed that the regular solution model is satisfied over wide composition range in above-mentioned steelmaking slags except for SiO2 saturation and FeO rich region. In has been possible by the use of the model to calculate activities of the constituents in FetO-(CaO+MgO)-(SiO2+P2O5), iso-activity lines for each component in FetO-CaO-SiO2 slags and contours of αFetO in FetO-MgO-SiO2 slags.
