Abstract

The feasibility of using chromite ore from Orissa Mineral Development Corporation, coke from Giridih and wood charcoal for the production of high carbon ferro-chrome was comprehensively investigated in the 500 KVA Submerged-Arc furnace Pilot Plant of the National Metallurgical Laboratory. Operating conditions were standardized to produce high carbon ferro-chrome containing 60-65% chromium, 3-6% silicon and 5-7% carbon. It was observed that wood charcoal could successfully be used for the production of high carbon ferro-chrome. Similarly, silicon-chrome containing 40% silicon was produced by the slag less method developed at National Metallurgical Laboratory. It was observed that coke from Giridih could be used as a carbonaceous reducer with partial replacement by wood charcoal in the production of silico-chrome containing Si 40% and C 0.05%.
