Abstract (en)

In a method for desulfurizing hot metal using a mechanical stirring desulfurization apparatus equipped with an impeller, a CaO-based desulfurization agent having a size in diameter of 30 to 400 µm is blasted, together with a carrier gas, through a top lance onto the surface of hot metal that is being stirred with the impeller to desulfurize the hot metal. In this manner, the desulfurization agent can be added with a high addition yield, and the aggregation of the added desulfurization agent can be prevented, thereby allowing for stable and highly efficient desulfurization.
