The main products of a blast furnace are pig iron (used to make steel) and slag (a byproduct that is used in construction materials).
Iron is removed from a blast furnace through a process called tapping, where a hole at the base of the furnace is opened to release the molten iron. The iron is then cast into molds to solidify and form pig iron or further processed into steel.
The viscosity of slag in a blast furnace typically ranges from 1 to 10 Pa.s (Pascal-seconds) at typical operating temperatures. Viscosity can vary based on factors such as temperature, composition of the slag, and other process conditions within the blast furnace.
Iron ore is used in a blast furnace as a raw material for producing iron. It is the primary source of iron, which is essential for the production of steel. The iron ore undergoes a series of chemical reactions in the blast furnace, resulting in the extraction of molten iron.
Molten iron sinks to the bottom of the blast furnace due to its higher density compared to the other materials. It is tapped from the furnace and cast into molds to solidify into various shapes for further processing.
Its because air is forced into the furnace to increase temperature. Steve.
Blast furnace .
the blast furnace got its name , because its bottom which is called a furnace blows hot air to go up.

A blast furnace is used to extract iron from its ore.
Govăjdia Blast Furnace was created in 1810.
A blast furnace is a forge in which ore is smelted to meal, being intensified by a blast of hot air.

A blast furnace.
The middle region of the blast furnace is called the bosh. It is where most of the chemical reactions, such as the reduction of iron ore and the formation of slag, take place. The bosh is a critical part of the furnace for producing molten iron efficiently.
