Why can't aluminium be extracted from aluminium ore using a blast furnace?
Because it is more reactive then carbon to be extracted in a blast furnace. Remember carbon is the reducing agent and for it to work the metal being extracted has to be lower in the reactivity series, e.g. iron
How does coal work to produce energy?
Think of coal like wood. In a wood stove or furnace, wood is burned to produce heat. Coal contains more energy and is cheaper that wood, however wood is renewable. The large coal power plants that run use coal to produce heat by burning it, heating water. When water heats up to steam, it has more pressure. This pressure is used to turn generators. The electricity produced will be direct current. The power plant will have a converter to change the DC into AC, Alternating Current.
How does coal work?
when coal is burned.Electricity from coal is the electric power made from the energy stored in coal. Carbon, made from ancient plant material, gives coal most of its energy. This energy is released when coal is burned.

How does coal work to make electricity?

Is blast furnace a batch furnace?
A blast furnace runs continuously, and input materials are continually dumped in at the top to make their way down through the furnace. Shutting down a blast furnace for relining or other work is a major event in its life.
How many people work in a blast furnace?
about 500 people
Do a heating furnace use gas coal wood or fuel to work?
yes heating furnace use coal and wood to heat and work.Because you cannot get such high temperature without that .
What do you need to get a furnace to work?
A source of heat.

What fuel does a steam train need to work?
Coal or wood
How many people work the furnace on a steamboat?
It takes about 5 to 10 men to work a steamboat furnace
Why do we need to extract iron from it's ore?
We extract iron form it's ore so that we can use it for a lot more things. For Example, this process makes wrought iron which can be used for ornamental work in gates. A lot of the iron from the blast furnace can be made into steel. Useful website: gcsescience.com
Would coal be able to power a car?
The short answer is yes, if you had the right type of car. In other words, coal would not power a car today since they are designed to run on gasoline or diesel however, if you were to design a car like we once designed coal steam engines or coal steam boats, then yes, you could technically propel a car by coal. It wouldn't be very practical though because you would need a furnace to melt down the coal and a large amount of coal to continue burning. While you can see how this could work on a boat, a electrical plant or even a train, having a giant furnace in your car that you have to keep shoveling coal into does not make any sense. Besides, coal doesn't burn very cleanly at all (Remember the industrial revolution?) and it would be better to try and make cars to run on something else. If you did make an electric car though, it would TECHNICALLY run mostly on coal as most electricity in a lot of states is made from coal power plants.
How much does it cost to relocate a furnace?
Cost depends on where the furnace is to be relocated. Duct work transitions may need to be made, electrical and gas lines may also need to be ran. Contact a reputable HVAC contractor to give you an estimate.
