Toward integrated ladle metallurgy control

This appears to be the first time that a process model has been developed to successfully reproduce the kinetics of coupled slag-metal reactions within an industrial LMF, assuming that the rates were mixed-transport controlled. Key conclusions include: The sampling practice employed in this study proved effective in isolating the differences between process events: (i) low argon flow-rate with arcs off, (ii) low argon flowrate with arcs on and …
