Abstract: Metallurgical industry as the pillar of national economic development, common smelting technologies include fire, wet, electroslag remelting, electron beam smelting, and plasma smelting. Due to its merits of high thermal performance, concentrated energy, high chemical activity, fast cooling rate, and controllable reaction atmosphere, plasma has been widely used in smelting, refining, and surface metallurgy to date. This paper reviews the research progress of plasma metallurgical technology in the field of smelting, refining and surface metallurgy. There into, the plasma technology used in smelting and refining has the advantages of high purity of product, adjustable power, controllable atmosphere, high conversion rate and heat utilization rate, and environmental- friendly production process. The coatings prepared by plasma surface metallurgy have stable microstructure, excellent properties, obtaining alloy layers, which are difficult to be prepared in traditional process. In the review, the problems of this technology were illustrated, such as short equipment life, difficult control of the process parameters, higher cost, less domestic metallurgical industry applications, and the corresponding solutions have been proposed. Therefore, the next research should focus on the following: optimizing the design of plasma equipment, improving the level of automation; combining with plasma numerical simulation to find the best technological parameters boost the stability of the synthesis process and product quality, thus reducing energy consumption and production costs; it is necessary to develop the large plasma torch with higher power to realize the large-scale application of plasma technology in metallurgical industry. Eventually, the developing guidelines of plasma metallurgy method were looked forward.
