Scrap-melting electric arc furnace

There is disclosed an electric arc furnace for the production of steel by melting scrap, in particular iron scrap, and/or sponge iron and/or pig iron as well as fluxes in a furnace vessel, into which at least one graphite electrode projects, which is displaceable in its longitudinal direction, wherein an electric arc is ignited between the graphite electrode and the charging stock. To achieve a particularly high energy input, the graphite electrode projects into a lower part of the furnace vessel from aside and the lower part, in the region of the graphite electrode, has an enlargement radially protruding outwardly relative to the upper part.

Electric arc furnace arrangement for producing steel

A bottom anode for a metallurgical vessel destined for producing a metal melt is formed by a metal bar provided with at least one through recess extending from outside of the metallurgical vessel as far as to within the metallurgical vessel. In order to substantially increase the service life of such a bottom anode, conforming it to that of a lining made of refractory material, the bottom anode, on the vessel internal-side end of the metal bar, is provided with a nose formed of metal melt produced within the vessel. The nose incorporates channels departing from the vessel internal-side end of the through recess of the metal bar, which is connected to a supply duct introducing liquid and/or solid hydrocarbons, and at least some of the channels reaching as far as the surface of the nose.

Bottom anode for a metallurgical vessel

The invention relates to a method for blowing oxidizing gases into molten metal located in a reaction vessel having tuyeres below the metal bath surface, whereby the oxidizing gases are blown into the molten metal from these tuyeres and fed to the tuyeres at an inlet pressure between 85 bars and 170 bars.

Method for blowing oxidizing gases into molten metal

In a method of producing metal melts, in particular a steel melt from scrap, in an electric arc furnace having at least one graphite electrode, organic substances are charged into the electric arc through a central longitudinal recess of the graphite electrode so as to reduce electrode consumption.

Method of producing metal melts and an electric arc furnace therefor

In a process for the production of a metal melt in a metallurgical vessel, the filter dusts incurring in producing the metal melt are to be processed to charging substances without causing a load on the environment and without great expenditures. This is achieved in that the filter dusts are introduced into the metallurgical vessel by aid of a gaseous conveying medium composed of natural gas or a mixed gas primarily containing natural gas, the filter dusts being supplied to the metallurgical vessel in a closed system and reduced by the carrier gas.

Process for the production of a metal melt

In a method of disposing of organic and inorganic substances, the substances are gasified and decomposed in and/or above a liquid bath of a metal alloy under negative pressure, off-gases forming are seized, collected and purified and separated. To prevent the formation of health-endangering emissions, such as dioxins and furans, and to recover pure starting materials for the production of organic substances, the substances are charged under negative pressure into an induction furnace containing a melt (18) of an iron alloy, in particular a steel melt, and are decomposed in the latter at liquid steel temperature, whereby the entry of gaseous O.sub.2 is avoided. This is also the case at the production of steel from scrap interspersed with organic substances. To recover pure starting materials from inorganic dusts, the latter are charged into a negative pressure induction furnace containing an iron melt together with suitable additives and are decomposed in that furnace at liquid steel temperature and are transferred to the starting materials.

Method of disposing of organic and inorganic substances and a plant for

A plant for the production of molten metals, includes a melting vessel and a metallurgical vessel receiving the melt from the melting vessel for aftertreating the melt and closed by a lid. The melting vessel has a tap opening for the melt provided on the bottom level of the melting vessel and located on the periphery of the melting vessel. The tap opening is positioned above a pour-in opening of the metallurgical vessel. In order to ensure a continuous melting procedure, the pour-in opening of the metallurgical vessel following the melting vessel is provided above a melt guiding chute arranged within the metallurgical vessel.

Plant for the production of molten metals and method

There are disclosed a method and an arrangement for preventing the agglomeration of crusts in a lance opening passing a wall of a metallurgical vessel and provided for a lance carrying a measuring and/or sampling probe. During the metallurgical process proceeding within the metallurgical vessel and during the taking of a measurement and/or sample by means of a lance introduced into the metallurgical vessel through the lance opening, a gas that is inert relative to a melt bath contained in the metallurgical vessel, or air, is injected into the lance opening from outside, which gas produces a gas veil at the mouth of the lance opening facing the melt bath.
