Abstract
The service conditions in L.D converters arc dealt with and the extstmg refractory
practice of lining these vessels is reviewed. Factors affecting the lining
wear and the role of carbon in tar bonded refractories have been discussed. The·
choice of refractory and the advantage of dolomite over other types of materials
have also been dealt with. The suitability of Indian raw materials namely-dolomite,
dolomitic magnesite and magnesite as well as suitable methods of their calcination
for use as lining material for L.D vessels are described.
