Converter
Continuous Casting
Here, the hot metal from the blast furnace is reduced to form molten steel. The hot metal contains carbon, silicon, phosphorus, and many other impurities, so it is transferred to the converter, where oxygen is blown in from above and below to oxidize and remove the impurities. This allows the required optimal components to be adjusted to make steel.
Here, the molten steel reduced in the converter is hardened and shaped into billets. The molten steel taken from the converter is continuously poured from the ladle into a mold below and cooled. The cooled, hardened steel is cut to specific lengths and carried to the rolling process to be shaped.
