Description
Desulfurizers can be used for desulfurization in steel plants, reducing non-metallic inclusions and improving the purity and quality of steel. This dataset includes major raw and auxiliary materials, energy inputs, and waste generated during production; infrastructure such as production equipment and factory construction is not included within the system boundary of the dataset. The life cycle inventory is compiled from data obtained from multiple sources. The manufacturing process of desulfurizers includes mixing, crushing, screening, and packaging.
Activity Description
The production activities of this product include processes such as mixing, crushing, screening, and packaging.
Process Description
The main raw materials for the desulfurizer are refined lime and fluorite powder. This product is primarily used in desulfurization stations at steel plants. Employing molten iron desulfurization significantly improves the technical and economic indicators of converters, reduces non-metallic inclusions, enhances steel purity and steel quality, broadens the range of steel grades produced in converters, and effectively reduces the smelting burden on blast furnaces and steelmaking furnaces.
