Ferro Alloys are the integral constituents of any steelmaking process. They are highly crucial materials for refining, deoxidation, desulphurisation and alloying to achieve the desired chemical and physical properties. The quality of steel and economics of steel production are greatly influenced by the quality of ferro alloys. As the demand for special quality steels with stringent quality requirements—particularly with respect to restricted chemical composition and cleanliness—increases, the role of ferro alloys is becoming more significant day by day.
