Electric Arc Furnace (EAF)

Lime, in the form of calcium oxide and calcium carbonate, is an essential component in the iron and steel industry. It is used as a fluxing agent, desulfurizer, and dephosphorization, helping to remove impurities and improve the quality of iron and steel. Its role in forming slag, regulating temperature, and refining molten metal contributes significantly to the efficiency and environmental sustainability of iron and steel production.
