The invention discloses an LF furnace shallow dephosphorization refining method. The method comprises the following steps that firstly, after molten steel enters an LF furnace, a steel ladle bottom blowing pipe and an external oxygen source are connected, bottom oxygen blowing is carried out, and bottom argon blowing is carried out in the whole refining process; secondly, current delivery and slagging are carried out; thirdly, after slag is molten thoroughly, power is cut off, the bottom argon blowing flow is increased to 800-850 NL/min, stirring is carried out, and dephosphorization is carried out; and fourthly, after dephosphorization is finished, lime is added so as to prevent rephosphorization. Dephosphorization is finished in the LF furnace, molten steel furnace returning is avoided, and the steel making production cost is reduced. Converter terminal point slag returning is mainly adopted to finish dephosphorization, secondary utilization of resources is effectively achieved, and good social benefits and economic benefits are achieved. The molten steel dephosphorization task can be finished only by adopting fluorite, ore, fluorite powder and other conventional materials as the auxiliary dephosphorization materials, the medicament input is little, and cost is saved; and the technology process is simple and clear, operability is high, and control is easy.
