The utility model relates to the technical field of electric
smelting magnesium oxide production equipment, in particular to a
direct current submerged arc furnace for producing electric
smelting magnesium oxide, which comprises a base, an
electric arc furnace body arranged on the base, a trolley arranged on the base, and an electric
smelting furnace arranged on the trolley, a sealing cover is arranged at the side end of the trolley; during use, after materials are filled into the
hearth through the hollow
electrode through the driving part I and the driving part II by utilizing stable current and
voltage of the direct-current power supply, the materials can be rapidly heated and melted in a
plasma arc area below the hollow
electrode; and then the materials are jointly heated and molten through the bottom
electrode,
electromagnetic stirring is formed on a
molten pool in the
hearth through the longitudinally-arranged hollow electrode and the bottom electrode, the reduction
reaction rate is increased, and homogenization of the temperature and components of the
molten pool is achieved.
