Working Principle of Submerged Arc Furnace
Submerged arc furnace is also called arc furnace or resistance furnace. It is mainly used for reducing smelting raw materials such as ore, carbonaceous reducing agent and solvent. SAF mainly produces ferrosilicon, ferromanganese, ferrochrome, ferrotungsten, silicon-manganese alloy and other ferroalloys, which are important industrial raw materials and chemical raw materials such as calcium carbide in the metallurgical industry. The working characteristics of the submerged arc furnaces are the use of carbonaceous or magnesia refractory materials as furnace lining and the use of self-baking electrodes. Working Principle of Submerged Arc Furnace As an industrial electric furnace of important products in the metallurgical industry. Submerged arc furnaces uses arc heat at the end of the electrode and resistance heat of the charge or slag for smelting. Coke or other carbonaceous reducing agents are usually used to reduce useful metal elements from ores or oxides. Its main working principle i...
