Plant trials with the addition of four different low carbon and medium carbon ferromanganese alloys to microalloyed engineering steels have been carried out at Ovako Steel, Hofors, Sweden. The process route for this type of steel at Ovako is electric arc furnace (EAF), ladle arc furnace (LAF), ASEA-...
