Abstract

See full text

A molten steel denitrification method, wherein an extremely low nitrogen concentration range is stably reached in a short time without use of a top-blown gas, is a denitrification process wherein CaO—and—Al2O3-containing slag formed by a combination of an Al addition step of adding a metal—Al-containing substance to molten steel to deoxidize and turn the molten steel into Al-containing molten steel and a CaO addition step of adding a CaO-containing substance to the molten steel is brought into contact with the Al-containing molten steel to remove nitrogen in the molten steel, in which the molten steel is stirred at a stirring power density ε of 60 W/t or higher. In the denitrification process, a surface of the molten steel or the slag is subjected to an atmosphere of 1.0×105 Pa or lower. In a steel production method, the obtained molten steel is cast after the components are adjusted.
