About Ferro Manganese

Ferro Manganese was invented in 1860 by Sir Henry Bessemer as a way to add Manganese during steel making with the advantage that a combination of Iron and Manganese Oxide results in a lower melting point for the alloy Ferro Manganese compared to pure Manganese Oxide.

​

Production of Ferro Manganese

Ferro Manganese is produced by reduction of Manganese Oxide in blast furnaces or electric furnaces. It is a very flexible process in that the slags can be reprocessed into Ferro Silico Manganese which in turn can be further refined into Medium and Low Carbon Ferro Manganese.

​

Standard Ferro Manganese (or High Carbon Ferro Manganese) is a commonly used alloy produced by the reduction of Manganese Ore in the presence of Carbon. Typically it contains 75% Manganese and 7% Carbon.
