Summary: | The distillation of an industrial Fe-Mn alloy at a high temperature and under a low pressure was suggested as an efficient method for manufacturing high purity manganese in our study. This study examined the evaporation behavior of a low carbon ferromanganese alloy melt at reduced pressure. The melt temperature, pressure, initial specific surface area of the melt and reaction time were considered as experimental variables. The evaporation ratio of manganese increased sharply in the initial reaction and remained relatively constant under various experimental conditions. The evaporation rate of manganese increased with an increasing temperature and the initial specific surface area of the melt and decreasing pressure. The activation energy of the manganese evaporation reaction decreased with a decreasing pressure. The initial specific surface area of the melt had a lesser effect than pressure. An empirical equation was derived for the rate of manganese evaporation from a low carbon ferromanganese alloy melt. |
