What Is The Benefit Of Ferro?

What is the benefit of ferro?

Steelmaking‌: high deoxidation efficiency, heat generation increases the temperature of molten steel, and reduces energy consumption.
Casting‌: refines graphite structure and enhances cast iron toughness.
Alloying‌: improves steel strength, hardness and magnetic permeability.


Where is ferrosilicon used?

Steelmaking‌: deoxidizer (more than 90% usage), alloy additive (structural steel, spring steel, etc.).
Casting‌: inoculant and spheroidizer for ductile iron.
Others‌: reducing agent to produce other ferroalloys, refining agent in non-ferrous metal processing.

 

What is the silicol process?

Core steps‌:

Raw material mixing (coke, quartz, iron source) → 2. High temperature reduction in electric arc furnace (above 2000℃) → 3. Molten ferrosilicon casting.

 

 

Who produces ferrosilicon in the world?

China‌
International

 


What is ferro made of?

The main components include silicon (from quartz/silica), iron (from steel scraps or iron ore), supplemented by coke as a reducing agent.
