Abstract
This study explores the ferrochrome smelting technology using briquettes with various carbonaceous reducers. The research addresses the significant challenge of dust and fine fractions of raw materials generated during the metallurgical industry's crushing, beneficiation, storage, and transportation processes. Briquettes were produced and tested by agglomerating chrome ore dust with carbonaceous reducers for their mechanical properties and effectiveness in smelting processes. The study concludes that carbonaceous reducers' ash content significantly affects the chrome ore-containing briquettes' thermal stability and electrical conductivity. Low ash content was associated with better performance in the smelting process. Using briquettes with various carbonaceous reducers offers a flexible approach to charge composition, depending on specific production needs and the availability of reducers. The results highlight the potential for improved environmental impact, reduced material losses, and enhanced efficiency in ferrochrome production.
