The invention discloses a method for
smelting chromel alloy by stainless steel dedusting ash and
laterite-
nickel ore. The method comprises the steps as follows: a stainless steel dedusting ash
briquette is manufactured; the stainless steel dedusting ash
briquette is added into the
laterite-
nickel ore, the
laterite-
nickel ore is placed in an electric
plasma furnace to be molten into a mother liquid, the temperature of the molten mother liquid ranges from1,650 DEG C-1,750 DEG C;
coke is added for
smelting after the mother liquid is molten completely, the
smelting temperature is controlled in a range from 1,650 DEG C to 1,750 DEG C simultaneously, and an additive is simultaneously added for an early reduction reaction for 1-2 hours; after the early reduction reaction is finished, a fluxing agent and
calcium carbonate are added for continuous reduction reaction for 1-2 hours, so that a
metal liquid is obtained; the temperature of the
metal liquid is adjusted in a range from 1,650 DEG C to 1,750 DEG C, dregs are removed, and the
metal liquid is remained; and pouring is performed to form ingots. With the adoption of the method, waste is reused, so that
pollution of the waste on the environment is reduced; and further, steel-making dedusting ash and the laterite-nickel ore are sufficiently combined for smelting, and the
chromel alloy with high
recovery rate and high content is obtained through addition of an NCP-2 additive.
