Influence of process parameters, hot metal silicon content and slag properties on steel dephosphorization

During the process of dephosphorization, the main solid phases formed in slag are dicalcium silicate (2CaO.SiO2), tricalcium silicate (3CaO.SiO2) and tricalcium phosphate (3CaO.P2O5). The last one is the main responsible for phosphorous removal. The present paper aims to study the influence of tempe...
