Conclusions
The combination of batch vacuum treatment of steel with continuous casting makes more rigid the refractory service conditions in the vacuum treatment unit and reduces their life.
The combination of domestic refractories used at Magnitogorsk is capable of providing sufficient refractory life of the vacuum treatment unit at Orsk-Khalikovo. This combination has been introduced into the Electric Melt Shop at Orsk-Khalilovo. It would be desirable to test PShPKh periclase-chromite parts in the vacuum treatment unit at Orsk-Khalilovo for the purpose of a further increase in the life of its lining.
