At the high temperature at the bottom of the furnace, carbon dioxide reacts with carbon to produce carbon monoxide. C + CO2 = 2CO. It is this carbon monoxide which is the main reducing agent in the furnace to produce iron. Fe2O3 + 3CO = 2Fe + 3CO2 . In the .
composition of the solid state reduction sample and the titania slag reduced from them, were analysed. It was found that the metallisation of iron in the solid reduction samples and the grade of titania slag generally increased with increasing carbon amount from 8 to 12%, and then remained constant when the carbon amount was increased above 12%.
Sep 04, 2012· iron(III) oxide + carbon monoxide > iron + carbon dioxide Fe2CO3 (s) + 3 CO (g) > 2 Fe (l) + 3 CO2 (g) Due to the high temperature inside the furnace, iron forms as a liquid.
The problem is that titanium forms a carbide, TiC, if it is heated with carbon, so you don't get the pure metal that you need. The presence of the carbide makes the metal very brittle. That means that you have to use an alternative reducing agent. In the case of titanium, the .
Induction slag melting (ISM) was developed by the Bureau in the 1970's as a technique for vacuum induction melting titanium in a segmented copper crucible. Its original intent was to consolidate titanium castings revert and loose titanium scrap into electrodes for melting in consumablearc furnaces.
In this paper, the principles and results of the silicothermic and silieoaluminothermic processes are investigated for smelting SiTi and SiTiAl ferroalloys using titaniumbearing slags from blast furnaces. After smelting the concentration of TiO_2 in the slags was found to be so low that the slags were characterized by the hydraulieity or pozzolanicity, and thus can be used for the ...
modification (reduction of carbon, titanium, sulfur, silicon, aluminum, etc.). In vacuum melting, the charge remains very close in composition to the nominal chemistry of the initial charge made to the furnace. Minor reductions in carbon content may occur, and most VIM operations now include a deliberate desulfurization step.
RefractoriesofMgO– Chavebeen widely and successfully electric resistance furnace. Experimental temperatures were used as lining materials in blast furnaces, rotary furnaces, from 1773 to 1923 K. The atmosphere above the slag electric resistance furnaces, and in the ferrous metallurgical was maintained at 30 vol.%CO, 60 vol.%N 2, and 10 vol.

Consequently, energy efficient crucibles with high graphite content in the carbon binder are often selected to provide high thermal conductivity for faster melting in these furnaces. Crucibles designed for electric resistance furnaces are normally basin shaped and provide a uniform distance between the crucible and the furnace heating elements.
A method for the recovery of valuable materials from titanium grinding swarf is provided comprising the steps of sieving the accumulated titanium grinding swarf to remove unwanted coarse trash and grinding wheel fragments, pelletizing, and smelting in an electric arc furnace to .
melting furnaces, pressure pour furnaces and magnesium treatment vessels with minimal to no adverse effects on refractory linings. Slag Formation: The formation of slag in the melting of ferrous metals in the foundry is inevitable. The composition of slag varies with the type of melting process used and the type of iron or steel being melted.

Benson and Sabrina Bradshaw ... in a slagtap furnace, as much as 50 percent of the ash is retained in the furnace as boiler slag. ... managers are able to enhance green sustainable construction by reducing their carbon ...
Carbon balance of the process is assessed by measuring the amount of carbon monoxide evolved in offgas exiting the furnace. A ratio of the amount of carbon monoxide evolved and the amount of silicon dioxide added to the furnace is determined.
Development of Carbon Blocks for Blast Furnace Hearths Michio NITTA* Hitoshi NAKAMURA Akio ISHII Abstract Carbon blocks have been used as refractory for blast furnace hearths since 1951 in Nippon Steel. Besides excellent corrosion resistance, high thermal conductivity is required for the refractory for blast furnace hearths to help a protective layer form
