The invention discloses a smelting process, in particular, relates to a smelting process capable of shortening ferrovanadium smelting time, and belongs to the technical field of iron making construction processes. The smelting process is short in process route and capable of obviously shortening the ferrovanadium smelting time. The smelting process adopts V2O5 arc starting; then, smelting raw materials are fed in a smelting furnace in batches for smelting; and the air injection stirring of a smelting molten pool is started before completion of smelting by 3-5 min until the ferrovanadium smelting work is finished.
