ABSTRACT:
In ladle refining of steel a molten protective slag covering is used consisting of iron blast furnace slag, or of a mixture of solid burnt lime and/or burnt dolomitic lime together with iron blast furnace slag in an amount effective to serve as a flux promoting the melting of the lime and dolomitic lime. The iron blast furnace slag avoids the environmentally harmful emissions caused by use of fluorspar as a flux. It forms a quicker melting slag, resulting in lower power usage and shorter refining times. It forms a final slag with good physical properties. There is considerable reduction of wear of the ladle and roof refractories and carbon pick up from the ladle refining electrodes is minimized.
