Abstract

A technology for manufacturing refractory ramming mixtures for the runners of blast furnaces is proposed based on the use of schungite in place of the conventional coke. The resistance of the lining to attack by molten metal and slag and its service life improved significantly using silicon carbide produced from schungite.
