    • Interfacial Behaviour in Ferroalloys: The Influence of Sulfur in FeMn and SiMn Systems 

      Bublik, Sergey; Bao, Sarina; Tangstad, Merete; Einarsrud, Kristian Etienne (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      The present study has investigated the influence of sulfur content in synthetic FeMn and SiMn from 0 to 1.00 wt pct on interfacial properties between these ferroalloys and slags. The effect of experimental parameters such ...

    • Investigation of Two Immiscible Liquids Wetting at Elevated Temperature: Interaction Between Liquid FeMn Alloy and Liquid Slag 

      Bao, Sarina; Tangstad, Merete; Tang, Kai; Einarsrud, Kristian Etienne; Syvertsen, Martin; Onsøien, Morten Ingar; Kudyba, Artur; Bublik, Sergey (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      The goal of the current work is to develop a methodology to study the wetting behaviour of two immiscible liquids at high temperatures, and to investigate the parameters which influence the wetting properties. The wetting ...

    • A Review of Ferroalloy Tapping Models 

      Bublik, Sergey; Olsen, Jan Erik; Loomba, Varun; Reynolds, Quinn Gareth; Einarsrud, Kristian Etienne (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Tapping is an important furnace operation in the ferroalloy industry and poses a number of complex and coupled challenges of both practical and economical importance. Owing to the hazardous high-temperature conditions ...

    • Slag Properties in the Primary Production Process of Mn-Ferroalloys. 

      Tangstad, Merete; Bublik, Sergey; Haghdani, Shokouh; Einarsrud, Kristian Etienne; Tang, Kai (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      The thermodynamic and kinetic properties of the carbothermic reduction of MnO in the five-component slag, MnO-SiO2-CaO-MgO-Al2O3, is critical in the production process of Mn-ferroalloys. While the reduction rate is mainly ...

    • Slag-metal interactions in the FeMn tapping process: Interfacial properties and wetting 

      Bublik, Sergey; Bao, Sarina; Tangstad, Merete; Einarsrud, Kristian Etienne (Chapter, 2019)
      FeMn-alloys are produced by transforming ore and carbon materials into FeMn and slag at high temperatures in a furnace. Entrainment of FeMn in slag during tapping reduces the yield. Entrainment and subsequent separation ...
