Objective The overall objective of the research project is to increase product quality through improvement of steel cleanness and control of inclusion compositions to minimise product defects. Novel methods of deoxidation will be assessed theoretically and practically on the basis of co-addition of nucleants and control of deoxidation adjacent to inclusion-absorbing slags. In parallel, optimisation of ladle slag compositions will be developed on a production plant using pre-prepared fused slags.
