Experiments were conducted in a vertical tube furnace using Fe-Ni metal and FeO-MgO-SiO2 ternary slag, which simulated the composition of natural ore. An equilibrium experiment was conducted to observe the distribution ratio of Ni, and thermodynamic data required for this experiment was calculated through Factsage. As a result, it was found that as the oxygen partial pressure increased, the Ni content in the slag increased linearly. The Ni content in the slag increased as the basicity moved away from 0.60.}, type={Article}, title={Effects of Oxygen Partial Pressure and slag Basicity on the Behavioral Characteristics of Ni in Slag Drying Smelting}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/131839/AMM-2024-2-10-Jei-Pil%20Wang.pdf}, doi={10.24425/amm.2024.149762}, keywords={metal, slag, Factsage, basicity, MgO saturated zone, SiO2 saturated zone}, }
