Optimizing Steel Production with High-Purity Carbon Additives

For steelmakers worldwide, achieving consistent carbon content while minimizing costs is a daily challenge—especially in high-temperature processes like electric arc furnace (EAF) and basic oxygen furnace (BOF) operations. That’s where calcined anthracite-based carbon additives come into play.

At Henan Rongsheng New Materials Research Institute, we’ve developed a premium-grade carbon additive with 99% purity and thermal stability up to 1770°C–2000°C, making it ideal for demanding applications across global steel mills—from flat rolled products to specialty alloys.

Feature Traditional Carbon Additive Our Calcined Anthracite Additive
Carbon Purity ~92–95% 99%
Max Temp Stability ~1600°C 1770–2000°C
Customizable Impurities Limited options SiO₂ / Al₂O₃ / MgO tailored per process
“Since switching to Rongsheng’s calcined anthracite, our EAF carbon efficiency improved by 18%, and scrap melting time dropped from 65 to 58 minutes.” — *Plant Manager, Mid-sized Steel Mill, Turkey*

What sets this product apart isn’t just the raw numbers—it’s how those properties translate into real-world results:

  • Lower consumption: At 99% purity, less material is needed to achieve target carbon levels—reducing waste and logistics costs.
  • Higher yield quality: Consistent carbon distribution minimizes microstructural defects, improving tensile strength and weldability.
  • Process flexibility: Customizable SiO₂, Al₂O₃, and MgO ratios allow precise tuning for different steel grades—from carbon steels to stainless or tool steels.

With over 2,000+ steel plants globally relying on our formulation, from South Korea to Brazil to Germany, the data speaks louder than any claim. Whether you're optimizing an existing furnace setup or designing a new one, this additive delivers measurable ROI—not just theory.
