Some will give credit to Sir Henry Bessemer invented the modern day blast furnace in 1855. However, if you look historically the Chinese invented the blast furnace. By at least the 4th century the Chinese have developed blast furnaces to obtain cast iron from iron ore. This was 1200 years before the first blast furnace showed up in Europe.
