Desulphurization of metal

Desulphuration of steel means a decrease of the sulfur's contents in it. Operation of desulfurization in modern metallurgy, as a rule, leads on expulsion and after expulsion of metal from the oven in the unit «furnace — ladle pot» by input a calcium powder wire or an additive firm clinker formation mixes.

The basic requirements to refinement of metal during desulphuration in a ladle pot using the unit «furnace — ladle pot» are:

  1. An intensive deoxidizing of aluminium;
  2. An agitation of fluidic steel with desulfurating additives by means of blowing through Ar ;
  3. Shaping the scoria that possesses high sulphidic capacity with the minimal contents of iron oxides in scoria;
  4. An introduction of a powder wire with the calcium weighing material in a melt.
Thus, besides desulfuration, some other problems and tasks are being solved as well:

  1. A reception of pluggings that fit the conditions of proskating rinks according to their parameters of plasticity;
  2. An achievement of the required molding boxes and makeups of sulphidic pluggings;
  3. A transformation of steel that was deoxidated by aluminium. A transformation of crystal acute-angled aluminous pluggings in aluminates of a calcium globulae shape.
According to well-known facts, during the charge of a powder wire (PW) with calcium weighing material from 1 up to 2,5 kg / t the level of desulfuration reaches values about 85% while during the comparable charge firm slag-forming mixes (FSM) the desulphuration does not exceed values in an interval from 10 to 15%. That is visible on the suggested diagram that shows the dependence of a desulphuration's level to the charge of software and FSM.
The degree of desulfurization of the number of input materials
Also, it is necessary to note the main advantage of software before FSM. During the comparable time pieces of treatment fluidic steel the contents of sulfur in the steel processed by a powdered wire with calcium weighing material (figure 1) is approximately three times lower, than in the steel processed by FSM (figure 2). That is visible on the suggested diagram that shows the dependence between the contents of sulfur in metal and duration of treatment.
The degree of desulfurization of the processing time
To sum up, it is possible to speak confidently about powdered wire's application for desulphuration as about a method with the greater level of adaptability to manufacture and economic feasibility, than during FSM application.

Dipping the contents of oxygen in metal or its linkage in strong bridgings is called deoxidizing effect.
Desulphuration of steel means a decrease of the sulfur's contents in it. Operation of desulfurization in modern metallurgy, as a rule, leads on expulsion and after expulsion of metal from the oven in the unit «furnace — ladle pot» by input a calcium powder wire or an additive firm clinker formation mixes.
In practice of modern metallurgical manufacture one of the perspective directions of improving the quality of metal rolling and the quality of the consumer properties, which are not demanding significant raw and power expenses, is the microalloying of steels.
A significant practical experience of out-oven treatments have been saved up in iron manufacture; effective methods and device for a sulphur removal (desulphuration) and modifyings of fluidic pig-iron have been offered and realized in practice.
