Process for suppression of dust and fumes during electric steel production.

摘要

To suppress dust and fumes in electric steel production in an electric melting furnace during the melting of iron products, such as raw iron, scrap iron directly reduced iron pellets and various alloying metals or mixtures thereof with widely fluctuating impurities, solid CO2 is passed into the melting vessel just before, during and after charging. In this way, the explosive combustion of the combustible constituents is prevented, since the oxygen is displaced during the charging step by the expanding gaseous CO2 being formed.
