Abstract

The effect of FeO and CaO on the sulfide capacity in MgO-SiO ₂-FeO based slags equilibrating with Fe-Ni alloys at 1773 K and 1873 K (1500 °C and 1600 °C) was investigated. The sulfide capacity in the MgO-SiO₂-FeO and MgO-SiO₂-CaO-FeO slags increased with higher FeO content and higher temperatures due to an increase in the activity of O^2- and a decrease in the activity coefficient of sulfide ion in slag. The sulfide capacity of the MgO-SiO₂-CaO-FeO slag also increased with an increase in the CaO content due largely to the increase in the activity of O^2-. Furthermore, CaO and FeO seem to be more effective than MgO in increasing the sulfide capacity in the MgO-SiO₂-CaO-FeO slag system. In addition, the comparison of the experimental results with the theoretical estimate using the modified empirical optical basicity showed relatively good linear agreement.
