IMPRC’s Experts Develop Solution to Produce Ferrovanadium

According to the report of public relations of IMIDRO, IMPRC reported that its home-grown solution to produce vanadium oxide from slag would significantly boost Iranian steel industry’s environmental records and will enable the country to cut imports of high-strength steel.

It said the Mobarakeh Steel Company, which is the largest steel producer in Iran, had supplied slag samples and technical services to the project to produce vanadium oxide from slag.

The research center said it was now carrying out feasibility studies for semi-industrial production of Ferrovanadium alloy in Iran.

The vanadium oxide can be used to produce Ferrovanadium alloy, a hardener that is used to manufacture high-strength, anti-corrosion steel.

The IMPRC as a subsidiary of IMIDRO is located in Kavosh industrial park, located some 60 kilometers to the northwest of Tehran.
