Blast furnace Process engineering and chemistry A blast furnace is a metallurgical furnace used to smelt and produce industrial metals, usually pig iron but also other metals such as lead or copper. Blast is the provision of combustion air above atmospheric pressure. [1]In a blast furnace, fuel (cok
READ MOREProducing one ton of steel in an electric arc furnace requires about 400 kWh per short ton (1.44 gigajoules) or about 440 kWh per ton (1.6 GJ); the theoretical minimum energy required to melt one ton of scrap is 300 kWh (1.09 GJ) (melting point 1,520 °C (2,768 °F)). Thus, a 300-ton, 300-MVA EAF woul
READ MOREAn Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) is a furnace in which materials are heated by an electric arc.Industrial electric arc furnaces range in size from small units with a capacity of about 1 ton (used in foundries for the production of cast iron products) to about 400 ton units for secondary steelmaking. E
