company news about Ferro Alloys Silicon Slag

Ferroalloys are alloys of iron with other elements, such as manganese, silicon, and chromium, that are used in the production of steel and other alloys. Silicon is a common element found in ferroalloys and is often added to steel production to improve its quality and properties.

Silicon slag is a byproduct of the production of silicon metal and ferrosilicon alloys. It is formed when silica (SiO2) is reduced to silicon metal (Si) or ferrosilicon (FeSi) in a high-temperature process. The slag is composed of various oxides and silicates, including silicon dioxide (SiO2), iron oxide (FeO), and aluminum oxide (Al2O3).

Silicon slag can be used as a substitute for ferrosilicon in steelmaking and as a raw material for the production of cement. It can also be used as a deoxidizer in the production of non-ferrous metals such as copper and aluminum.
