The physical characteristics and chemistries of the pig iron

The physical characteristics and chemistries of the pig iron (iron basic), turn up the best source of virgin iron for electric oven:

Format: the weight on average of the pig (iron basic) it is about 8 kg. Product of easy handling reducing the stock cost, unloading and transport without wastes.

Density: The density in bulk it is of 3,5 metric tons for meter cube.

Purity: The high tenor of Fe (94 to 95%) without impure material combined with a low tenor of sulfur and phosphorus is the characteristic of the coal used in the pig iron . The absence of such pollutants like Cu,Cr,Ni,Mo,Sn,V,Ti and Zn, dissolve these residual lowering the cost of the scrap mixture.
