Abstract From the Canadian patent

The carbon and dissolved oxygen contents of molten steel are reduced by a vacuum degassing treatment which may employ oxygen blowing. A determination is made of the idealized trajectory or path reflecting the change in carbon content and dissolved oxygen content between, atmospheric pressure and a preselected sub-atmospheric pressure at which the vacuum degassing treatment occurs. The idealized trajectory also reflects the effect of extraneous factors on the carbon content dissolved, oxygen content and temperature of the molten steel during the treatment. A selection is made of the boundaries of the idealized trajectory based upon the permissible limits of carbon content, dissolved oxygen …
