Removing impurities from iron, also active as a coolant! 50% of the production of quicklime is used for steelmaking!
Lime is widely used as a secondary raw material in steelmaking. Quicklime reacts with impurities such as silicon (Si), sulfur (S), and phosphorus (P) in iron within the converter or electric furnace to form slag, which removes impurities from the iron. It also serves as a cooling agent. In the case of high-quality steel, further refining is performed outside the furnace using quicklime after it exits the converter. 【Overview】 ■ 50% of quicklime production is used for steelmaking ■ Removes impurities from iron ■ Also acts as a cooling agent ■ In the case of high-quality steel ・ Further refining is performed outside the furnace using quicklime after it exits the converter *For more details, please refer to the related link page or feel free to contact us.
