Title: Ferrosilicon from BHQ, BHJ & Low Reactive Coal
Value Proposition: Preparation of Ferrosilicon from non standard material such as BHQ, BHJ & Low Reactive Coal
Summary Application: Ferosilicon can be used as an
1. alloying element,
2. deoxydiser in iron and steel industry
3.electrode coating in arc welding
4. in production of magnesium, as  reductant in pidgon process.
Advantages: Use of non-standard materials such as BHQ, BHJ & Jhama coal for production of Standard Ferro-silicon which is more suitable for iron and steel sector.
