Selection of refractory materials for vitrification electric furnaces of radioactive waste

It was shown that fused-cast chrome-containing refractories are the most promising as the lining material of designed glass-making electric furnaces and smallsized melters of the next generation. To provide a long (up to 10 years) life of the furnace, its elements that are subject to intensive wear must be made of refractories of HPL-85 type with a high chromium content. The bakor furnace masonry of other elements can be replaced with fused-cast refractory material type HAC-26M with a low content of chromium oxide.Ill.2. Ref. 11. Tab. 5.
