Abstract

In a method of wholly or partially decarbonizing metals or metal alloys containing carbon, the said metals or alloys are admixed with magnesium oxide or materials containing or capable of forming such oxide, the oxide being reduced by the carbon in p the metal or alloy to be decarbonized at a temperature of approximately 1500-2000 DEG C. The liberated magnesium may be burnt and returned to the process. The treatment may be carried out in an arc furnace lined with magnesite, the mixture of metal or alloy and magnesium oxide being added in powder form, or alternatively, in a high frequency furnace which has a lining of sintered magnesite coated with calcined magnesite or magnesium oxide. Metals or alloys which are entirely or partially relieved of carbon may be obtained directly from the corresponding ores, the reduction charge being mixed with magnesium oxide or materials containing or capable of forming it, such as dolomite, roasted dolomite or non-roasted magnesite, the slag formed during reduction being enriched in magnesium oxide which causes decarbonization of the metal or alloy. The ore or ore mixture may be first sintered with the oxide material, thus forming a compound such as magnesium ferrite. The treatment of iron or iron alloys, such as pig iron and high-carbon ferro-chrome, which may contain nickel, is referred to.
