TECHNOLOGICAL ASPECTS OF FERROMANGANESE SMELTING IN BLAST FURNACES

The results of assessing the influence of certain technological parameters on the performance of ferromanganese smelting in blast furnaces are presented. It is noted that productivity is affected by the amount of oxygen supplied with the blast. Specific coke consumption is most significantly affected by the consumption of raw manganese ore and the manganese content in hot metal. The degree of manganese assimilation depends on the parameters of the slag regime (basicity and quantity of slag).
