Abstract

Previous work on the mechanism of carbon monoxide absorption and desorption from liquid steel/iron is reviewed. The experimental set-up employed in these studies is summarized and the characteristics of each methodology are discussed and compared. The reaction kinetics, particularly the rate-limiting step of the CO gas-molten steel/iron reaction is analysed with respect to experimental parameters, comprising temperature, CO partial pressure in the gas mixture, gas flow rate, crucible materials, and carbon and oxygen content in the steel/iron. To further understand the CO absorption and desorption mechanisms in liquid steel, suggestions for future work are provided.
