The article presents a plasma chemical technology for processing solid fuels, using examples of bituminous and brown coals. Thermodynamic and experimental investigation of the technology was made. The technology allows producing synthesis gas from the coal organic mass and valuable components (technical silicon, ferrosilicon, aluminum, and carbon silicon, as well as microelements of rare metals...

The process of dissolution a particle ferrosilicon modifier in cast iron melt is considered, taking into account such physical analogy as the distribution heat from point source space (an infinite body).

The slagging and fouling characteristics of the heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) for ferrosilicon electric furnaces are discussed in this paper. Three ash samples were taken from the HRSG of a ferrosilicon furnace in Ningxia Province, China, which suffered from serious slagging and fouling. X-ray fluorescence (XRF), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) were ...

Research is made into the fuzzy control of electrode regulator systems of submerged electrical arc ferrosilicon furnace EAF. The equations of the electrode currents and furnace resistances are derived based on certain model for the submerged arc ferrosilicon furnace. This model takes into consideration the walls of furnace and the heat losses into external medium in addition to the heat transfe...
