    ENG: Purpose: Determination of rational methods for reducing the carbon and phosphorus content in manganese alloys. Research methodology: thermodynamic calculations and experimental studies of decarburization and dephosphorization of a high-phosphorus manganese alloy. Research materials: As a high-carbon ferromanganese with a high phosphorus content, an associated metal (manganese alloy) obtained during the production of low-phosphorus slag at the Nikopol Ferroalloy Plant was used. Rolling scale was used as an oxidant (composition, wt. %: FeO – 59.5; Fe3O4 – 38.9). Research results: The features of dephosphorization of manganese alloys were considered. According to the adopted “classical” technology, a useful product of dephosphorization of manganese concentrates is manganese slag with a low phosphorus content. Oxidation of phosphorus dissolved in the metal can occur as a result of its interaction with oxygen in the gas phase, while the oxidation of this slag, the higher its basicity, the greater the probability of phosphorus oxidation. Considering the basicity of the slag, the higher the FeO content in it, the better the conditions for removing phosphorus from the metal. The process of dephosphorization of the associated metal includes the oxidation of phosphorus, the binding of phosphorus oxide into strong compounds (phosphates) and their transition to the slag phase. Scientific novelty: The composition of the associated metal includes silicon, which has a much higher affinity for oxygen than phosphorus; Then, naturally, it will first be oxidized with the formation of silicon oxide with a melting point much higher than the temperature of experimental studies. Practical significance: The results obtained show that when oxidizing the associated metal with iron scale at a specific consumption of 114 kg/t of metal, the total degree of extraction: silicon 88.16%, phosphorus 71.03%. At the same time, the manganese content in the metal decreased by 6.48% due to the reduction of rolling scale.
