Direct alloying with molybdenum oxides has been regarded in years; the main addition methods are adding to the bottom of electric arc furnace (EAF) with scrap, adding to the ladle during the converter tapping and mixing molybdenum oxide, lime and reductant to prepare pellet added to basic oxygen furnace (BOF). In this paper, a new method for direct alloying with molybdenum trioxide is proposed, adding molybdenum trioxide molten steel by feeding wire method in ladle furnace (LF) refining process. The feasibility of molybdenum oxide reduction, the influence rules of bottom-blown on liquid steel fluidity and the yield of molybdenum by feeding wire method were analyzed. Results show that molybdenum oxide can be reduced by [Al], [Si], [C], and even [Fe] in molten steel. Bottom blowing position has a significant influence on the flow of molten steel when the permeable brick is located in 1/2 radius. The yields of Mo are higher than 97% for the experiments with feed wire method, the implementation of direct alloying with molybdenum trioxide by feed wire method works even better than that uses of ferromolybdenum in the traditional process.

The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanical characteristics, microstructural properties, and environmental impact of basic oxygen furnace (BOF) slag-treated clay in South Korea. Mechanical characteristics were determined via the expansion, vane shear, and unconfined compression tests according to various curing times. Scanning electron microscopy was conducted to analyze microstructural properties. Furthermore, environmental impacts were evaluated by the leaching test and pH measurements. According to the results, at the early curing stage (within 15 h), the free lime (F-CaO) content of the BOF slag is a significant factor for developing the strength of the adopted sample. However, the particle size of the BOF slag influences the increase in the strength at subsequent curing times. It was inferred that the strength behavior of the sample exhibits three phases depending on various incremental strength ratios. The expansion magnitude of the adopted samples is influenced by the F-CaO content and also the particle size of the BOF slag. Regarding the microstructural properties, the presence of reticulation structures in the amorphous gels with intergrowths of rod-like ettringite formation was verified inside the sample. Finally, the pH values and heavy metal leachates of the samples were determined within the compatible ranges of the threshold effect levels in the marine sediments of the marine environment standard of the Republic of Korea.

In this paper, a new method of basic oxygen furnace (BOF) slag component modification with a regulator was studied. The main mineral was designed as C4AF, C2S and C3S in modified BOF slag, and the batching method, mineral compositions, hydration rate, activation index and capability of resisting sulfate corrode also were studied. XRD, BEI and EDS were used to characterize the mineral formation, and SEM was used to study the morphology of hydration products. The results show that most inert phase in BOF slag can be converted into active minerals of C4AF and C2S through reasonable batching calculation and the amount of regulating agent. The formation of C4AF and C2S in modified BOF slag is better, and a small amount of MgO is embedded in the white intermediate phase, but C3S is not detected. With the increase in the CaO/SiO2 ratio in raw materials, the CaO/SiO2 ratio of calcium silicate minerals in modified BOF slag increases, the contents of f-CaO are less than 1.0%, and the activity index improves. Compared with the BOF slag, the activity index and exothermic rate of modified BOF slag improved obviously, and the activity index of 90 days is close to 100%. With the increase in modified BOF slag B cement, the flexural strength decrease; however, the capability of resisting sulfate corrode is improved due to the constant formation of a short rod-like shape ettringite in Na2SO4 solution and the improvement of the structure densification of the hydration products.

The compositions and formation process of f-CaO in BOF slag were revealed and simulated to understand its expansion rules and why its hydration activity is low. BSE showed the compositions of f-CaO, which included calcium iron phase and calcium iron manganese phase, were diverse. The hydration activity sequence was Ca2Fe2O5 and Ca3Fe1.5Mn1.5O8 in tricomponent f-CaO < CaO in tricomponent f-CaO < monocomponent f-CaO; only Ca2Fe2O5 and Ca3Fe1.5Mn1.5O8 were hard to hydrate, and the volume expansion rates of the tricomponent f-CaO varied with different compositions. Inductively, in BOF slag, the hydration activity sequence was solid solutions CaO-FeOx and CaO-FeOx-MnOy in tricomponent f-CaO < CaO in tricomponent f-CaO < monocomponent f-CaO; the volume expansion rates of tricomponent f-CaO changed with different compositions, and CaO-FeOx and CaO-FeOx-MnOy were difficult to hydrate. The reason why solid solutions CaO-FeOx and CaO-FeOx-MnOy were hard to hydrate was that their hydration reaction driving force, which is the absolute value of standard molar reaction Gibbs functions, decreased.

AbstractThe Na2O-MgO-CaO-FeO-Fe2O3-Al2O3-SiO2-P2O5 system is a basic oxide system for the Basic Oxygen Furnace (BOF) process as well as the hot metal dephosphorization process. Numerous experimental investigations on this oxide system are being carried out to find out an advanced process route for P removal from molten iron. In spite of their industrial importance, however, phase equilibria in oxide systems containing P2O5 have not been well investigated due to the complexity of their chemistry. No systematic thermodynamic modeling of these systems has been conducted to date, either. In order to meet the strong demands of steelmaking and other industries, new systematic thermodynamic modeling of the P2O5-containing oxide systems (Na2O-MgO-CaO-FeO-Fe2O3-Al2O3-SiO2-P2O5) and key phase diagram experiments have been carried out over the past years. In the present study, the results of the thermodynamic modeling of unary, binary and ternary P2O5-containing systems and the applications of the thermodynamic database to the dephosphorization by multi-component slag in BOF process are presented in comparison with experimental data. All thermodynamic calculations were performed using FactSage thermodynamic software.
