Abstract

With a goal to estimate the sulfide capacities of slags used in the pretreatment of hot metal, the sulfide capacities of CaO-Al2O3-SiO2 slags were measured at 1673 K to 1773 K (1400 °C to 1500 °C). The gas–slag equilibrium technique has been used for this measurement. From the results obtained, it was found that the temperature dependence of the sulfide capacity of this slag is independent of the slag compositions. Therefore, a new empirical model based on optical basicity for sulfide capacity estimation of this slag was developed using the measured values of the current work and literature. With the use of the new model, the isosulfide capacity curves at 1673 K (1400 °C) were mapped.
