Abstract
The article discusses the possibility of using silicon carbide as the main component for preliminary deoxidation of a carbonaceous intermediate product when the latter is discharged from the converter into a ladle in order to adjust the costs of tradition‑ ally used deoxidizing materials. It has been established that the use of silicon carbide as a deoxidizer is economically feasible in the smelting of low‑carbon low‑alloy steels of converter production.
The method of adding the material is described and the results of the work performed are presented.
