What about graphite electrodes for steel mills?

Answer:

Hebei North graphite electrode factory produces various specifications of graphite electrode, with low resistance, high density, small ash, and so on, so that less tons of steel-making, quality is good
For steel and iron alloys, graphite electrodes are used, when powerful currents pass through electrodes into the melting zone of the electric furnace to produce an arcThe electric energy is converted into heat energy, and the temperature is increased to about 2000 degrees, so as to achieve the purpose of smelting or reaction. In addition, the electrolytic goldWhen the magnesium, aluminium and sodium are used, the anode of the electrolytic cell is also made of graphite electrode. The resistance furnace for carborundum is also made of graphite electrode as the burnerConductive material.
The graphite electrode steelmaking is to enter the electric energy through the graphite electrode to the electric arc furnace, and takes the arc between the electrode end and the furnace charge as the heat source to carry on the steel smelting. The electric arc furnace takes electric energy as heat source, and can adjust the atmosphere in the furnace. It is very beneficial to smelt the steel which contains more easily oxidized elements. Smelting a variety of alloys
