THERMODYNAMIC MODELING OF THE PROCESS OF Smelting LOW-CARBON FERROCHROMIUM USING BORON-CONTAINING SILICOCHROME
Annotation
This article shows research work based on modeling, which is a tool for analyzing existing technological processes and new technological processes. Due to its effectiveness, it has been widely used to develop new processes and metals. In this work, using the method of complete thermodynamic analysis, we simulated the technological process of melting silicon-chrome with a given boron content, which is used as a complex reducing agent in the smelting of low-carbon grades of ferrochrome. The influence of the composition and temperature of the charge on the chemical and phase composition of the smelting products was studied, the degree of transition of the charge elements into metal was determined, and the optimal conditions for producing the alloy were found. Based on thermodynamic analysis, it is also shown that the choice of process temperature (1750-1800 °C and above) is associated with the kinetic conditions of melting, the melting temperature of the resulting metal and slag. In general, computational and theoretical analysis and thermodynamic modeling showed the effectiveness of using silochrome with boron as a reducing agent. It has been shown that a given amount of boron in silicon chrome (0.3-0.7%) provides 0.3-0.5% В2О3 in the slag. This is sufficient to solve the important problem of stabilizing highly basic slags from decomposition. At the same time, their physical properties improve, which ultimately should have a positive effect on the melting mode and metal losses from the slag.
