Ferrochrome is produced by electric arc process by carbothermic reduction of chromite. Majority of the world's Ferro chrome is used in the production of stainless steel. Stainless steel depends on chromium for its appearance and its resistance to corrosion. The average chrome content in stainless steel is approx.18%.

Carbothermal reduction of chromite ore (FeCr 2 O 4) in a submerged arc furnace is an important industrial process for extracting chromium, but the energy consumption is excessive. It is suggested that one area for future research is the low temperature carbothermic solid state reduction of chromite to produce an intermediate product, which can ...

Preliminary investigation of the conversion rate for the carbothermic reduction of a pyrochlore and ferric oxide mixture was done to simulate the type of reactants that would be used in a commercial process. The rate was improved by the addition of iron oxide. 11. Harrison, Robert.

A process was conceptualized at Mintek for the carbothermic reduction of V2O5 to produce a vanadium sub-oxide (approximately VO), which is then reduced further using aluminium, with the iron being added as metal. The plasma furnace would be well suited to supplying the energy requirements of this endothermic process.

process by S.P. du Preez*, J.P. Beukes*, D. Paktunc†, P.G. van Zyl*, and A. Jordaan* The chromium (Cr) content of stainless steel originates from recycled scrap and/or ferrochrome (FeCr), which is produced mainly by the carbothermic reduction of chromite ore. The oxidative sintered pellet production process

Ferrochrome production is essentially a carbothermic reduction operation taking place at high temperatures. Chrome ore (an oxide of chromium and iron) is reduced by the carbon in coke to form the iron-chromium alloy as shown in Figures 3a and 3b.

Feb 05, 2021· The key difference between carbothermic and metallothermic reduction is that in carbothermic reduction, the reducing agent is carbon, whereas, in metallothermic reduction, the reducing agent is a metal.. Carbothermic reduction and metallothermic reduction are very important reactions in obtaining pure metal. These reactions are applied mainly in industrial processes.

Carbothermic reactions are performed in electric arc furnace. Real data about element distribution, metal yield, and energy of reactions are used for adapting the theoretical model with empirical results. Materials and methods In reduction processes of complex oxide system with aluminium, rates and temperatures of reactions are very high.

Dec 05, 2019· The use of solar energy to produce metals from their oxides via the carbothermic reduction process is a cleaner alternative to traditional combustion-based processes with an added value of a significantly reduced CO 2 emission footprint. In this study, the potential contribution of solar energy to the pyrometallurgical production of magnesium was analyzed and compared to the common industrial ...

Ferrochrome is an alloy of chromium and iron containing 50-70% chromium by weight and is produced through a carbothermic reduction process taking place at high temperatures (2,800 deg Celsius) where chrome ore is reduced to form Ferrochrome alloy by smelting in electric arc furnaces using coke as reducing agent.
