Process for refining molten steel containing chromium

摘要

A chromium-containing steel refining process which is employed in a decarburizing refining of chromium-containing steel includes a step of blowing oxygen and inert gas below the upper surface level of molten steel for performing decarburizing reaction there, and a step of blowing oxygen-containing gas above the upper surface level of the molten steel, for the purpose of burning carbon monoxide gas produced from the upper surface of the molten steel, which oxygen-containing gas includes therein oxygen at least 0.2 times as much as the amount of the oxygen blown below the upper surface level of the molten steel.
