Features & Benefits
Features
- Free flowing high quality and reactivity lime speeding up the desulphurization process.
- Cost effective blends fluxes based on metallic magnesium and lime.
Benefits
- Desulphurization of hot metal with lime is the most economic process for removing sulphur before charging to the BOF. Formed sulphides from lime are very stable.
- Tailor-made cost-effective solutions for targeted sulphur level.
- Reduced slag volume and lower iron loss.
- Optimum slag viscosity balancing sulphur removal, iron loss and skimming efficiency.
- Safer and environmentally friendly solution compared to calcium carbide or fluorspar containing fluxes.

More information
Flowability can be greatly affected with very fine grains and hence it is necessary to find an optimum balance between efficiency and conveying ability. In order to obtain good flow characteristics while keeping high reactivity, fluid milled lime is obtained thanks to the use of special additives. The fluid milled lime is then not posing any problem with pneumatic transport during injection.
