About

About the course

Course content

The course is given every. The course includes analysis of some processes for ferroalloy production. Both slag bearing and slag free reduction and refining processes for production of Mn- and Si-alloys are treated. Phase relations, distribution equilibria, kinetical issues and process mechanisms are discussed. The importance of various process parameters are evaluated in view of theoretical aspects.

Learning outcome

The course aims at giving a deeper theoretical understanding of the electro-metallurgical processes for ferroalloy production.

Learning methods and activities

Exercises and a term paper.
