  1. 1. Solubility of hydrogen in slags and its impact on ladle refining

    Author : Jenny Brandberg; Du Sichen; Mia Almcrantz; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Other materials science; Övrig teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : The aim of the present work was to clarify the mechanisms of hydrogen removal during vacuum degassing. The main reason for this was because the primary source of hydrogen pick-up in steel-making is the moisture in the furnace atmosphere and the raw material charged into the ladle furnace. READ MORE

  2. 2. Aspects on slag/metal equilibrium calculations and metal droplet characteristics in ladle slags

    Author : Johan Ekengård; KTH; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In the present work the mixing between the metal and slagphase during the ladle refining process from tapping from theelectric arc furnace to casting in two different Swedish steelplants has been studied.Three slag models and the sulphur-oxygen equilibrium betweenslag and steel was used together with the dilute solution modelfor the liquid steel phase to predict the equilibrium oxygenactivity in steel bulk and metal droplets in top slag inequilibrium with the top slag.

  3. 3. A Study on the Influence of Steel, Slag or Gas on Refractory Reactions

    Author : Sune Jansson; Pär Jönsson; Lauri Holappa; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Metallurgical process engineering; Metallurgisk processteknik;

    Abstract : During the production of steel the oxide inclusion content partly depends on the reaction of the melt with the furnace lining, the ladle lining and the pouring system. The refractory material may be eroded by the molten steel and slag as well as corroded through chemical reactions with the slag and molten steel and the deoxidation products. READ MORE

  4. 4. Modelling Approaches of Multiphase Phenomena Focusing on an Integrated Steelmaking Route

    Author : Reza Safavi Nick; Pär Jönsson; Björn Glaser; Dong-Yuan Sheng; Stein Tore Johansen; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Materials Science and Engineering; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : Improvements in numerical methods and developments of computer hardware brought attention to the modelling of metallurgical processes. This has been a critical step in understanding in-furnace conditions throughout the ironmaking and steelmaking process since it is, if not impossible, extremely difficult to conduct measurements during the process.
