Abstract

Main kinds of RH-degassers are viewed: RH-TOP/ RH-KTB (Kawasaki Top Blowing), RH-OB (Oxygen Blowing), RH-PB (Powder Blowing), RH-INJ (Injection). The effectiveness of these RH-degassers for decarburization, desulfuration, refining from oxide inclusions and so on are presented. Construction peculiarities and technological factors, which increase a decarburization rate, are also viewed. [Rus.]
