ABSTRACT:
A process of degassing and decarbonizing is directed to a process for performing vacuum degassing non-deoxidized or slightly deoxidized molten steel utilizing RH process or DH process. The process includes blowing of oxygen or oxygen containing gas toward the surface of the molten steel in a vacuum chamber for promoting decarbonizing reaction. The process further includes a step of combustioning of CO gas in the vicinity of the surface of the molten metal at a timing, in which concentration of (CO+CO.sub.2) in an exhaust gas is higher than or equal to 5% and a ratio of CO.sub.2 versus (CO+CO.sub.2) in the exhaust gas is approximately 30%. Heat generated by combustioning of CO gas is utilized for compensating temperature drop of the molten steel.
