The influence of a nonstationary electric current on an oxide melt is studied. A nonstationary energy action is found to change the microstructure of a liquid system and to promote unlikely chemical reactions between an oxide melt and gas components. The division of the gas-phase components into oxidizing and reducing gases becomes rather conventional. It is found that stable application of an electric current can bring the system to a quasi-equilibrium state, which can retard the development of a chemical reaction, and the chemical reaction during the process can generate an electric current.
