In the present investigation, the effect of CaO–Al2O3-based synthetic slag additions on steel desulphurisation has been studied on industrial scale. The dependency of sulphide capacity (CS\documentclass[12pt]{minimal}

A kinetic model of steel desulphurisation was developed to predict the volumetric mass transfer coefficient of sulphur (KS·a\documentclass[12pt]{minimal}

From the results, it was observed that (FeO + MnO) in slag, Al2O3/CaO ratio, optical basicity, viscosity of slag and sulphide capacity played an important role in steel desulphurisation. The results suggested suitable operating parameters under different conditions to improve desulphurisation.
