Known phosphate ceramic formulations are improved and the ability to produce iron-based phosphate ceramic systems is enabled by the addition of an oxidizing or reducing step during the acid-base reactions that form the phosphate ceramic products. The additives allow control of the rate of the acid-base reactions and concomitant heat generation. In an alternate embodiment, waste containing metal anions are stabilized in phosphate ceramic products by the addition of a reducing agent to the phosphate ceramic mixture. The reduced metal ions are more stable and/or reactive with the phosphate ions, resulting in the formation of insoluble metal species within the phosphate ceramic matrix, such that the resulting chemically bonded phosphate ceramic product has greater leach resistance.

An improved method and apparatus for metal melting, refining and processing, particularly adapted to steel making in an electric arc furnace. The method provides auxiliary thermal energy to the steel making process, particulate injection for the formation of slag and foamy slag, and oxygen injection for the decarburization of the melt, for the formation of foamy slag and for post combustion burning of carbon monoxide. The burner includes two injection barrels for providing finely pulverized particles and for providing either a supersonic or a subsonic primary flow of an oxidizing gas. The barrels are positioned side by side in a nozzle at the entrance of a flame shaping chamber of a fluid cooled combustion chamber. The nozzle also contains a plurality of fuel orifices for the providing pressurized fuel to the combustion chamber and a plurality of oxidizing gas orifices for providing a secondary flow of an oxidizing gas around the periphery of the nozzle. Because all of the flows of fuel, oxidizing gas and particulates pass through the flame shaping chamber, they are all substantially directed to the same location in the electric arc furnace. The directionality of the flows allows the burner to heat a localized spot of the slag with thermal energy from the oxidation of the fuel, from the oxidation of oxidizable components in the slag or the melt by the lancing of supersonic oxidizing gas, or from any combination of these. Once a spot in the slag is sufficiently heated, a flow of carbon is directed to the localized hot spot in the slag to reduce the FeO, and other oxides, in the slag to carbon monoxide and produce foamy slag. The particulate carbon introduction can be accompanied by further oxidizing gas injection before, during or after the carbon injection.
