Abstract

9508. Greene, A. E. April 21. Cast - iron and scrap processes.-In a process for refining steel and steel alloys by eliminating one or more undesired oxidizable elements, the molten metal or alloy is maintained at a temperature at which the oxygen - affinity of the element or elements that it is desired to eliminate is greater than the oxygen-affinity of the element or elements that it is desired to retain, the said bath being subjected to the action of a gaseous mixture having oxidizing properties with respect to the former element or elements, but reducing properties with respect to the latter element or elements. The desired impurities are thereby removed without the remaining metal or constituents being prejudicially affected, and without danger of overblowing. The necessary conditions are obtained by a combined regulation of the temperature of the bath and of the composition of the gaseous mixture, the most advantageous temperature and composition being found by a series of trials upon the particular material to be treated. Blast-furnace gases may be employed as the gaseous mixture, the desired dissociation pressure being obtained by a variation of the composition of the mixture, and also of the total pressure thereof. The impurities may be largely removed by treatment with an oxidizing - gas prior to treatment with the gaseous mixture above described. A flux suitable for forming slag compounds with phosphorus and sulphur is employed when these impurities are present in the steel or other metal or alloy under treatment; and the treatment is continued by subjecting the bath to the further action of a gas having reducing-properties with respect to the said flux. The process may be applied to steel alloys containing one or more of the following, namely, titanium, tungsten, chromium, nickel, cobalt, molybdenum, silicon, and manganese. The process may be carried out in an electric furnace 4, the gaseous mixture being introduced through tuyeres 10, and the gaseous products removed, and the pressure in the furnace regulated by a fan 9; or an induction furnace may be employed.
