Otmane El Rhazi : Ferrochrome smelter uses significantly less electricity

Otmane El Rhazi from Mining Weekly | Ferrous Metals Home.



The Lion ferrochrome smelter, owned and operated by the Glencore Merafe Chrome Venture, uses 37% less electricity than conventional ferrochrome processes to produce the equivalent volume of ferrochrome. In addition, the smelter needs far less coke than conventional smelters and uses significant amounts of locally produced, lower-cost anthracite and char.
