Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the primary benefit of using Ferro-Carbon balls in BOF?
The primary benefits include increasing the end-point temperature of the furnace and reducing the overall consumption of steel materials, leading to higher cost-efficiency.
Q: When should the Ferro-Carbon balls be added to the converter?
They should be added after the scrap loading process is complete and immediately before the blowing process starts.
Q: How does this product contribute to "Clean Steel" production?
Due to the extremely low content of trace elements in our ferro-carbon balls, they minimize the introduction of impurities into the melt.
Q: Can the chemical composition be customized for specific metallurgical needs?
Yes, while we have standard specifications (Fe≥40%, C≥25%), we can provide customized compositions based on your specific requirements.
Q: What is the recommended total amount for addition?
It is recommended that the total amount added in bunches should not be less than 15kg/ton, adjusted in 2-3kg/ton increments.
Q: How can I optimize the loading time for my specific BOF setup?
We recommend tracking actual performance data and conducting statistics during your initial trials to calibrate the timing and amount for your specific furnace.
