Zusammenfassung:A VCR (vacuum converter refiner) makes it possible to replace the dilution process of AOD with a vacuum process at the final stage of decarburization and a following slag reduction period. Ultra-low C and N stainless steel can be produced comparatively easily in a 70 t VCR process with several operational improvements such as estimation of decarburization behavior under vacuum and prevention of N pickup during tapping and casting. Some operational results and discussion of decarburization and denitrification of a 70 t VCR in Daido Steel's Chita Plant are described.
