DRI Gas Based
Fe T = 93.8%, Fe M = 88.0%, C = 1.20%, S = 0.015%, P = 0.040%,
N. Mag. = 1 – 2%
FeO% in DRI = (Fe T – Fe M) X 72 / 56 = (93.8 – 88.0) X 72 / 56 = 7.46%
Out of 7.46% FeO, 60 – 70% FeO gets reduced and 30 – 40% FeO remains
unreduced and goes into slag.
So 60% of 7.46 = 4.48% FeO will be reduced to Fe = 4.48 X 56 / 72 =
3.49% Fe
Total Fe M = 3.49% Fe + 88% Fe M = 91.49% Fe M
4.5 Ton X 7.46% X 35% = 0.117 Ton unreduced FeO
1.2% carbon will escape, hence, net Fe M = 90.29%
1% Non Mag is present.
For 4.5 Ton we have 45 kg of non Mag
Hence total Fe M = (4500 – 45) X 90.29% Fe M = 4.022T

DRI Coal Based
Fe T = 92.0%, Fe M = 82.0%, C = 0.12%, S = 0.030%, P = 0.040%,
N. Mag. = 1 – 2%
FeO% in DRI = (Fe T – Fe M) X 72 / 56 = (92.0 – 82.0) X 72 / 56 = 12.85%
Out of 12.85% FeO, 60 – 70% FeO gets reduced and 30 – 40% FeO remains
unreduced and goes into slag.
So 60% of 12.85% = 7.71% FeO will be reduced to Fe = 7.71 X 56 / 72 =
5.99% Fe
Total Fe M = 5.99% Fe + 82% Fe M = 87.99% Fe M
8.5 Ton X 12.85% X 35% = 0.382 Ton unreduced FeO
0.12% carbon will escape, hence, net Fe M = 87.87%
1% Non Mag is present.
For 8.5 Ton we have 85 kg of non mag
Hence total Fe M = (8500 – 85) X 87.87% Fe M = 7.394T

Slag analysis of samples taken from EAF / LRF / VD is done to know the Feo %,
MnO %, SiO2 %, Cao %, MgO %, Al2O3 % present with the help of Volumetric
Methods of Titration with different reagents like Potassium Dichromate and
EDTA.

%CaO / %Sio2 this ratio is known as V – ratio. The ability of a slag to retain
oxides is generally expressed as the ratio of basic to acid oxides & is represented
as:
V ratio = %CaO / % SiO2
Modified V ratio is given by = CaO% / (SiO2% + P2O5% + Al2O3%)
Basicity is generally defined as ratio of all basic oxides upon all acidic oxides. For
effective refining under basic steel making, basicity always taken more than 2
Basicity = all basic oxides / all acidic oxides
= (%CaO + %MgO ) / (%Al2O3 +% SiO2 + %P2O5)
In practice Basicity is taken as
= (%CaO + %MgO) / (%SiO2 + % P2O5)
Or = %CaO / (%SiO2 + % P2O5)
Or = % Cao / % SiO2
Assuming Basicity = 2.5
Taking
Basicity = (%CaO + %MgO) / (%SiO2 + % P2O5)
2.5 = (%CaO + %MgO) / 1.02 % + 0.13 %
or (%CaO + %MgO) = 2.5 X 1.15 %
= 2.88 %
= 720 kg for 25 T

In available Metallurgical Lime we have CaO % = 85 % and MgO % = 4 %
If we consider only the effect of CaO
The amount of metallurgical lime needed = 847kg
If we consider effect of both CaO and MgO
The amount of metallurgical lime needed = 809 Kg
Total amount of O2 gas needed per charge mix = 323 + 35.5 + 17.78 + 136.57 – 4.14
= 508.71 Kg
Volume of O2 needed = 508.71 / 32 X 22.7 at NTP
= 360.86 Nm3
V ratio = % CaO / % SiO2 = 2.88 / 1.02 = 2.82
*Non Magnetic (N. Mag) material s that are present along the charge materials also have
to be considered as acidic oxide.
Hence when we consider the N. Mag material (0.84% for the 25 T charge) in calculation
of Basicity or lime needed then we have
Basicity = (%CaO + %MgO) / (%SiO2 + % P2O5 + % N. Mag)
Or 2.5 = (%CaO + %MgO) / (1.02 + .0.13 + 0.84)
Or (%CaO + %MgO) = 2.5 X 1.99
Or (%CaO + %MgO) = 4.9 % for 25 T charge
= 1225 Kg
Now Met Lime contains 89 % (CaO + MgO)
Then total Met Lime needed = 1400 Kg
Generally the amount of flux needed always kept 100 Kg to 200 Kg more than the
minimum required amount to compensate losses during charging.
