Raw Materials Ferro Vanadium

Raw Materials Ferro Vanadium is a gray-black, odorless solid alloy with a melting point between 1400-1521℃. It is insoluble in water. Its core value stems from the synergistic effect of vanadium and iron – vanadium can form a continuous solid solution with iron, generating intermetallic compounds at specific temperatures, thus giving the alloy excellent mechanical and chemical properties. Based on vanadium content and impurity levels, common industrial ferrovanadium specifications are mainly divided into three categories to meet the precise needs of different industries:
FeV40: Vanadium content 35.0%-50.0%, impurity control standards: Si<2.0%, Al<4.0%, C<0.30%, P<0.10%, S<0.10%. It offers excellent cost-effectiveness and is widely used in the production of ordinary low-alloy steel.
FeV60: Vanadium content 50.0%-65.0%, lower impurity content (Al<2.5%, P<0.06%, S<0.05%), suitable for the manufacture of alloy structural steel, spring steel, and other steels with high performance requirements.
FeV80: Vanadium content 75.0%-85.0%, extremely high purity (Al<1.5%, P<0.06%, S<0.05%), mainly used in the production of high-end tool steel, heat-resistant steel, and titanium alloys, and is a core raw material in the high-end manufacturing sector.

 Aluminothermic method: The earliest and still widely used process, using aluminum as a reducing agent to reduce vanadium pentoxide. The heat released by the reaction maintains the smelting process, eliminating the need for additional large amounts of heating. By adding recycled ferrovanadium scraps to regulate the temperature and lime to reduce slag viscosity, the vanadium yield can be effectively increased (90%-95%), ultimately producing high-purity ferrovanadium with 75%-80% vanadium content, suitable for the production of high-end specifications such as FeV80.
 Electric silicon-thermic method: Using 75% ferrosilicon and aluminum as a composite reducing agent, the smelting is carried out in two steps in a three-phase alkaline electric arc furnace: the reduction stage produces a vanadium-silicon-iron alloy with high silicon content, and the refining stage reduces the silicon content through slag refining, finally obtaining ferrovanadium with 40%-60% vanadium content. This process offers controllable costs and is suitable for the large-scale production of mid-range specifications such as FeV40 and FeV60, making it one of the mainstream methods for industrial mass production.
 Carbothermal reduction method: This method is mainly used to produce high-carbon vanadium additives (such as Carvan vanadium). It involves the stepwise reduction of vanadium pentoxide with natural gas in a rotary kiln, followed by pressing the resulting material with graphite into blocks and vacuum sintering. The product has a fast dissolution rate, high vanadium yield, and is relatively economical, making it widely used for adding vanadium to ordinary alloy steels.
