Abstract (en)

[origin: US4772317A] The process includes two major phases, each including a converter blowing step and a discharge step, whereby the first discharge step is also a preparatory step for the second blowing step. The steel is dephosphorized, desulfurized, and decarbonized under formation of basic slag which is retained in the converter during the first discharge. Lime, limeflux and possibly clay is added prior to the second blowing together with, preferably, silicon for deoxidation. After the second discharge, additional alloy components may be added.
