Application of Oxygen Making Machine in Metallurgical Field

2019-01-18

Oxygen generator has a wide range of applications, metallurgical field is one of them. How is oxygen generator applied in metallurgical field? What kind of powerful role does the oxygen generator play in it? Next, I will give you a brief introduction.

Next take the steel-making plant as an example to see what the specific application of oxygen generator is like. It is well known that oxygen is needed in steelmaking. At this time, if we use oxygen generator to produce oxygen on site and inject high purity oxygen, oxygen will react rapidly with carbon, phosphorus, sulfur, silicon and so on. In this way, not only the carbon content of steel can be reduced, but also the impurities such as phosphorus, sulfur and silicon can be removed. In addition, the heat generated during the oxidation process is sufficient to maintain the required temperature during steelmaking. Therefore, blowing high purity oxygen not only shortens the smelting time, but also improves the quality of finished steel. We can say without exaggeration that oxygen generator plays a very important role in metallurgical field.

With the development of technology and the verification of practice, the best method of oxygen steelmaking is top blowing converter steelmaking. It has the advantages of high speed, high yield, good quality, many varieties and low investment. Therefore, oxygen blowing is widely used in converters, open hearths and electric furnaces.
