Ferroalloys have been developed to improve the properties of steels and alloys by introducing specific alloying elements in desirable quantities in the most feasible technical and economic way. Ferroalloys Plays major role in Steel Production and industrial development. These are iron based alloys with varied elements introduced in steel making to cater to the specific needs. These are specified additions to the production of steel for variousapplications. It also has application in the field of production of low- carbon steel, for producing low-carbon ferromanganese, for producing low-carbon ferrochrome.The major users of alloy steel are: auto industry, railways, forgings, tubes, springs and other engineering industries.

 

The demand for ferro alloys has been increasing with that of alloy and special steels. There are six leading players and over 30 small producers. The industry has tied up with companies in Europe for technology inputs. Ferro manganese along with Fe-Si, Fe-Cr, is a bulk ferro-alloy. Iron for Farm implements uses up to 1.75% Mn and also in automobile parts. Ship construction industry uses steels with even higher content; riffle barrels and heat treated forgings necessarily use ferro manganese as an alloying additive.
