Abstract
The equilibrium study has been made on the vanadium distribution between CaO-SiO_2-MgO_ast.-Fe_tO slag and liquid iron over the temperature range from 1540℃ to 1640℃. The vanadium distribution ratios(L_v) were approximately larger than phosphorous distribution ratios(L_p) by a factor of 10∼100 times. The L_v dependence on slag composition and temperature was found to be similar to the case of L_p. The vanadium distribution ratio increases with the slag basicity and Fe_tO content in slag, but decreases with the increase of temperature. A linear relationship was observed between logarithm of (V)/{[V][O]^n} (n=2 or 2.5) and (CaO+0.3MgO)/SiO_2. It is assumed that the vanadium ion is in the form of V^4+ or V^5+ in slag. The mutual function relating the slag components, F_s=0.58(CaO/ SiO_2)+0.025Fe_tO, was introduced to explain quantitatively the influence of slag composition on the vanadium distribution ratio. The log values of vanadium distribution ratio as a function of Fs were derived at the fixed temerature of 1590℃ and 1640℃.
