Ferrochrome or ferrochromium (FeCr) is a type of ferroalloy, that is, an alloy of chromium and iron, generally containing 50 to 70% chromium by weight. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Ferrochrome is produced by electric arc carbothermic reduction of chromite .
Chrome mineral that is used in melting power plants, is supplied from the mines of the country, mainly from the chrome-holding basin of Bulqize. The final and only product of the Ferro Chrome factory in Burrel is ferro-chrome with high carbon content (C= 6–8 %), whereas the chrome in ferro-chrome is Cr=60-65 % (base 63%).
On 4 April 2008 Eurasian Natural Resources Corporation PLC finalized the purchase, first signed on 4 December 2007, of the controlling interest in Serov Ferrochrome Producer (Serov SPA) in Sverdlovsk region, eastern Russia for US$210 million from various entities affiliated with Mr. P Chodiev, Mr. An Ibragimov and Mr.
It is usually found as the mineral chromite, from which ferrochrome is produced in a smelting process. Rank Country/Region Chromium ore production (tonnes)

A carbon tariff or carbon border adjustment mechanism (CBAM) is an eco-tariff on embedded carbon. [11] In 2024 the United States said it is not a carbon tax, [12] but the World Trade Organization is dysfunctional so is unable to agree or disagree. [13] One aim to prevent carbon leakage from nations without a carbon price. [11]
Titanium is used in steelmaking for deoxidation, grain-size control, and carbon and nitrogen control and stabilization. During steelmaking, titanium is usually introduced as ferrotitanium because of its relatively low melting temperature and high density.
Chrome steel is the name for any one of a class of non-stainless steels such as AISI 52100, SUJ2, 100Cr6, [1] En31, 100C6, and DIN 5401 which are used for applications such as bearings, tools, drills and utensils. Like stainless steel, chrome steels contain chromium, but do not have the corrosion-resistant properties of stainless steel. [2]
