The invention relates to silicon carbide smelting, in particular to a process for smelting macrocrystalline green silicon carbide, which comprises the following: a, a step of preparing raw materials of quartz sand and petroleum coke in a ratio of 1.48 to 1.54; b, a step of material mixing; c, a step of furnace charge, in which homogenized raw materials are delivered to a material area (1) at the bottom of a furnace, a burden material subjected to secondary roasting is filled in reaction areas (3, 4 and 5) in the middle of the furnace, and a burden material subjected to primary roasting is filled in the external heat preservation areas (7 and 8); d, a step of smelting, in which the charged furnace is electrified for smelting for 32 to 36 hours, the power of a transmission transformer is 8,000 KVA, and after cooling for 72 hours, the materials are discharged and graded. By adopting a smelting process of roasting for two times, the process reduces the waste of primarily roasted material, the specific consumption of the petroleum coke, the quartz sand and power, and saves energy. Meanwhile, as a long-time lower power transmission is adopted, the reaction of grains is more uniform and complete and the structure of the grains is more compact and firm; and compared with products in the prior art, the product has higher hardness, larger grain size, higher content and more desirable powder grain form.
