  • Patent number: 4915732
    Abstract: The efficiency of the use of desulfurizing agents, particularly calcium carbide- and calcium oxide-based desulfurizing agents, to decrease the sulfur content of molten iron is improved by adding a pulse of magnesium, aluminum or calcium metal at a critical concentration of sulfur and oxygen in the molten metal. The improved efficiency enables less desulfurization agent to be employed for the same residual sulfur concentration, with consequently decreased reaction time and costs.
