Experimental melting of high-silicon ferromanganese with the use of ferromanganesian ore and manganese slag

This work presents the results of smelting ferromanganese from high-silica iron-manganese ores with 36 % manganese content by the flux method. The Shubarkol deposit coal and metallurgical coke as reducing agents were used. The fluxing material was solid slag from the smelting of medium-carbon ferromanganese. The technological modes of the smelting process are established. The optimal composition of the charge was determined. As a result of the theoretical and experimental studies, the tasks have been solved completely - the smelting technology of high-silicon ferromanganese was developed and tested using a substandard raw materials, such as iron-manganese ores and flux
