As a result of the global transition towards green steel production, integrated steel plants are optimizing the existing processes and/or adopting new steelmaking methods to minimize their carbon footprint. These adjustments affect desulfurization conditions and requirements. The ...
HIsarna reactor is characterized by a high raw materials versatility and is therefore attractive for processing secondary iron sources. Among the materials that can be recycled through HIsarna, zinc-bearing material has drawn a special attention. Based on the plant data, once dus ...
In hot metal desulphurisation (HMD) the slag will hold the removed sulphur. However, the iron that is lost when the slag is skimmed off, accounts for the highest costs of the HMD process. These iron losses are lower when the slag has a lower viscosity, which can be achieved by ch ...
The optimal hot metal desulphurisation (HMD) slag is defined as a slag with a sufficient sulphur removal capacity and a low apparent viscosity (ηslag) which leads to low iron losses. In part I of this study, the fundamentals behind the optimal slag were discussed. In t ...
The slag in the hot metal desulphurisation (HMD) process should have a high sulphide capacity to capture the sulphur and a low viscosity to minimise the iron loss; in particular the emulsion loss. Although the slag composition changes during the HMD process as a result of reagent ...
