This activity consisted of laboratory tests of steel production, with a view to the elaboration of low carbon stainless steels (decarburized) and low S and / or P carbon steels (desulfurized and / or dephosphorated). The decarburization and desulfurization / dephosphorisation processes were tested by reagent addition systems (argon / oxygen in the case of […]
Characterization of wastes
Activity 2, Identification and characterization of wastes, is complete. Residues of potential interest for the production of additives that promote the desulfurization and dephosphorization reactions of liquid steel were identified and characterized. These are residues that primarily contain the elements calcium, aluminum and silicon and which, combined in certain proportions, can enhance the manufacture of […]
Activity 1 finished
The first activity of the project, Characterization of available raw-materials, has been completed, with the full characterization of the raw materials, both metallic scraps and potencial chemical for additives for liquid steel treatment. The procedures used were essentially of chemical analysis determination, aiming at the precise determination of the chemical composition of the materials. For […]
