1. Product Introduction
Ferrovanadium iron blocks are essential components for steel production. According to vanadium content, there are two main types: FeV50 and FeV80. This iron alloy is obtained by reducing vanadium pentoxide with carbon in an electric furnace, or by the silicothermic process. Major exporters including China and South Africa supply 80% of global ferrovanadium.
Ferrovanadium iron blocks represent the most common physical form of this alloy, designed for safe handling and efficient furnace charging. The block form minimizes surface oxidation during storage and transport while providing a consistent dissolution rate in molten steel. Steel producers value the predictable behavior of high-quality iron blocks, which enables accurate calculation of vanadium recovery and final steel composition.
