Introduction to Submerged Electric Arc Furnace

Introduction to Submerged Electric Arc Furnace

The main mechanical device design of Sanui submerged electric arc furnace combines China's national conditions and draws on international advanced technologies such as Demark and Pyremate. It adopts hydraulic pressure ring, suspension cylinder hydraulic lifting mechanism, and independently developed submerged arc furnace electrode adjustment device, which is an automatic control voltage discharge device integrating machinery, electrical appliances, pneumatics, and hydraulics, water-cooled cables, space lattice copper tube short net copper reverse parallel connection, forged copper tiles, etc.


Submerged electric arc furnace is mainly used for reducing and smelting raw materials such as ore, carbonaceous reducing agent and solvent.


It mainly produces ferroalloys such as ferrosilicon, ferromanganese, ferrochrome, ferrotungsten, silicon-manganese alloy, etc. Its working characteristics are that it uses carbonaceous or magnesia refractory materials as furnace lining and uses self-training electrodes.


The electrode is inserted into the charge for submerged arc operation, and the energy of the arc and the current passing through the charge are used to generate energy due to the resistance of the charge to melt the metal, and the charge is added successively, and the iron slag is discharged intermittently. It is an industrial electric furnace with continuous operation.

Main Uses of Submerged Electric Arc Furnace

SAF mainly used to produce ferroalloys (such as ferrotungsten, high carbon ferromanganese, high carbon ferrosilicon, high carbon ferrochromium, ferronickel alloys).

 SAF also used to produce industrial silicon, calcium carbide, corundum, yellow phosphorus, etc.

Submerged arc furnaces are used in steel, non-metal and other industries.

Characteristics of Submerged Electric Arc Furnace Equipment

1. High Temperature and Low Energy Consumption

The working temperature of the submerged arc electric furnace is as high as over 1500°C, so it can melt many high melting point metals and compounds. At the same time, because it can use waste gas such as blast furnace gas as fuel, the energy consumption during the smelting process is relatively low.

2. High Production Efficiency

The submerged arc furnace has a fast smelting speed, can handle a large amount of ore, and has the characteristics of continuous operation and efficient operation.

3. Reusable

The metal materials obtained by smelting in submersible arc furnaces can be reused, saving raw materials and reducing waste, which is in line with the concept of sustainable development.

4. Working Characteristics

Its working characteristics are that it uses carbon or magnesium refractory materials as furnace lining and uses self-training electrodes.The electrode is inserted into the charge for submerged arc operation, and the energy of the arc and the current passing through the charge are used to generate energy due to the resistance of the charge to melt the metal. The charge is added successively, and the iron slag is discharged intermittently. It is an industrial electric furnace that operates continuously.

5. The Load of the Transformer of the Submerged Electric Arc furnace is Continuous and Stable

The load of the transformer of the submerged arc electric furnace is continuous and stable, with low impedance voltage, more voltage regulation levels, smaller level difference and strong overload capacity.It can be divided into two types: load and non-excitation voltage regulation. Generally, the first few levels have constant capacity output, and the last few levels have constant current output.

Submerged Electric Arc Furnace Smelting Process

01

Submerged Electric arc furnace (SAF) is a closed environmentally friendly and energy-saving solution, suitable for ferroalloys (such as ferrotungsten, high carbon ferromanganese, high carbon ferrosilicon, high carbon ferrochrome, nickel ferroalloy) and industrial silicon, calcium carbide, corundum , yellow phosphorus, etc. Submerged arc furnace preheating can eliminate water and volatile components, thereby stabilizing smelting process conditions and reducing the unit energy consumption of the furnace.

02

Water injection into the furnace shell and forced ventilation at the bottom of the furnace ensure effective cooling. The thermally conductive carbon lining combined with effective cooling forms a spontaneous freezing layer on the hot side of the lining, minimizing lining erosion and improving thermal efficiency.

03

The characteristics of the submerged electric arc furnace are that it uses carbon or magnesium refractory materials as the furnace lining and uses self-trained electrodes.

04

The electrode is inserted into the charge to perform a submerged arc operation. The energy of the arc and the current passing through the charge are used to generate energy due to the resistance of the charge to smelt the metal. It is an industrial electric furnace that continuously feeds materials, taps iron slag intermittently, and operates continuously.

05

The submerged arc furnace transformer has a continuous and stable load, low impedance voltage, many voltage regulation stages, small step differences and strong overload capability.

06

Submerged arc furnaces can achieve extremely low specific energy consumption, low reducing agent and electrode consumption, and very high production throughputs. The enclosed design also minimizes dust emissions into the factory environment and surrounding atmosphere.
