Combining Expert Advice Efficiently

The production of relatively low phosphorous, semifinished steel from blended presized granules of high phosphorous iron ore and limestone, directly and selectively reducing the iron oxide to sponge iron and calcined lime with the current of hot reducing gases in a shaft furnace, charging heated granules directly to a melting furnace to obtain semifinished steel and slagging off phosphorous and other undesirable components and thereafter refining the semifinished steel in a conventional electric furnace.
