Key Considerations
Dolomitic lime is used in the steel industry as a melting agent, increasing the fluidity of the blast furnace slag and contributing to better quality pig iron production. Its main function is to help in the formation of slag. It contains a high magnesium content, which generates direct benefits during the iron reduction process, reducing the consumption of refractories.
