The paper reviews the methods of improving the slag splashing process. Studies of the phase and mineralogical properties of converter slag were conducted at one of the European metallurgical complexes. Simulation results are provided with respect to slags of various compositions using the data from the earlier studies of the physical and chemical properties.
