اقرأ أكثرDuring chromite smelting, the Fe- and Cr-oxide constituencies of chromite are reduced to their metallic states, i.e., Fe 0 and Cr 0, which subsequently form the FeCr alloy. However, an appreciable fraction of the Fe and Cr are in their carbide form . Of these oxides, the Fe-oxides are reduced and metalized at temperatures lower than Cr-oxide.

اقرأ أكثرChromium is a naturally-occurring element found in rocks, animals, plants, soil, and in volcanic dust and gases. Chromium is mined in two different ways: underground mining and surface mining. Underground mining is used to reach deeper deposits. It involves digging a tunnel into the Earth, then blasting and excavating the ore.
اقرأ أكثرThe ferrochrome smelting is based on using sintered chromite pellets as the main chromite source, blended with lumpy ore, although a pellet feed can also be used. Pellets are typically produced from concentrate, which results in a high chromite content in raw material, lowering the slag-to-metal ratio.
