ferrosilicon
In steel production, it acts as an oxygen remover, and also in its casting, it makes steel stronger and harder, and increases its elasticity and magnetism. Ferrosilicon is also used as a nucleator in the production process of cast iron due to its high graphite properties. This material is used to separate and reduce heavy materials. Ferrosilicon will have its own special application for the Pedigon process in the production of magnesium. Silicon is used in the production of pure silicon semiconductor in the electrical industry and silicon copper in the chemical industry.
