Ferro Alloys

Ferroalloys like ferrosilicon, ferromanganese, ferrotitanium, etc, ae added to the furnace during the production of steel, in small and precise quantities for specific improvements of steel properties.

For ferroalloy production, a submerged Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) is used, loaded with selected and sized raw materials, such as quartz, wood, charcoal and ores. During the process, these raw materials melt and chemically react. The product that leaves the furnace is a molten metal, such as silicon, ferrosilicon, ferronickel, thermal phosphorus, and zirconium. These molten metals are cooled and further processed into the appropriate size and grade for various applications.
