Blast furnace – basic oxygen furnace. Modern blast furnaces can produce 10,000 tonnes of hot metal a day in furnaces as large as 15 m in diameter and 35 m tall (Yang et al., 2014). The top of the furnace is around 200 °C while the bottom can reach temperatures above 1600 °C (Hosford, 2012). Iron ore and coke are added to the …
A blast furnace is a steel cylinder lined with refractory. It operates continuously until the lining wears out, which takes many years to occur. The term blast furnace comes from the blast of hot air that is blown into the lower part of the furnace at between 1400º to 2100ºF. Molten iron is produced in a blast furnace by the following steps: 1.
