Ferrosilicon products can be used in many industries such as steel smelting, casting, other ferroalloys, chemicals, etc. The usage composition of ferrosilicon varies greatly in different regions. Silicon can increase the magnetic permeability of steel and reduce the hysteresis loss of steel. Therefore, ferrosilicon has many benefits as an alloying agent. So in what aspects does it manifest itself?
Ferrosilicon production operates continuously. According to the furnace's unloading situation, a small batch of materials are continuously added to the furnace, and the accumulated alloy in the furnace is regularly discharged. The prepared furnace materials are accurately weighed according to the prescribed ratio. The batching should be carried out in the prescribed order to ensure that the furnace materials are evenly mixed. The density of silica, the density of steel scraps, and the density of raw materials must be carried out in appropriate proportions.
In order to ensure that the charge can be mixed evenly after it descends from the tube, whether the charge is evenly mixed or not has a great impact on smelting. In order to ensure that the charge is evenly mixed. , only one batch of materials is allowed to be weighed at a time, and no more than two batches of materials can be stored for each material. Ferrosilicon can be smelted in continuous production in large, medium and small submersible furnaces.
Another function of ferrosilicon is that because silicon and oxygen can easily combine to form silica, ferrosilicon is often used as a deoxidizer in steelmaking. At the same time, because silica releases a lot of heat when it is generated, it deoxidizes and Increasing the temperature of the molten steel is also beneficial. Ferrosilicon is commonly used as a reducing agent in ferroalloy production and chemical industry. Therefore, its uses are very wide.
