Abstract

As the core basic material of the high-temperature production process of the iron and steel industry, the performance adaptability of refractories directly determines the smelting efficiency, product quality and production cost. In view of the outstanding problems faced by refractories in the current green and low-carbon transformation of the iron and steel industry, such as erosion and wear, uneven life span, and environmental protection hazards, this paper summarizes the application scenarios and problems of refractories in the iron and steel industry on the basis of literature research, and then puts forward optimization strategies such as formula improvement, process optimization and environmental protection upgrade, which provides technical support for the efficient adaptation and application of refractories in the iron and steel industry, and is of great significance to promoting the green and high-quality development of the industry.
