Ferro Chrome (FeCr) is an alloy of chromium and iron containing between *0% and *0% chromium. The ferrochrome is produced by electric arc melting of chromite, an iron magnesium chromium oxide and the most important chromium ore. The production of steel is the largest consumer of ferrochrome, especially the production of stainless steel with chromium content of *0 to *0% is the main application of ferrochrome.

Over *0% of the world's ferrochrome is utilized in the production of stainless steel. In ***6 *8 Mt of stainless steel were produced. Stainless steel depends on chromium for its appearance and its resistance to corrosion. The average chrome content in stainless steel is approximately *8%. It is also used when it is desired to add chromium to carbon steel. FeCr is most commonly used in stainless steel production. Alternatively, high carbon FeCr produced high grade ore is more commonly used in specialist applications such as engineering steels where a high Cr to Fe ratio and minimum levels of other elements such as sulfur, phosphorus and titanium are important and production of finished metals takes place in small electric arc furnaces compared to large scale blast furnaces.
