It produces less CO2 than smelting iron ore
False. The ore is heated (smelting)

2(Fe2O3)+3C ==> 4Fe + 3CO2
Smelting is a term for melting iron and other metals. Within this process the temperature of the metals can go up to 1250°C and more. The common use is to seperate the iron and oxidations of it from the ore.
Living in the forest gave them more wood for charcoal
New improved methods for smelting iron led to production of less expensive and better quality iron.
Being able to produce iron using a more abundant product increased industrial capability....im positive ADDED: The development of iron-smelting - and melting of the finished iron - by coke was indeed vital to the Industrial Revolution, by allowing larger rates of iron production; and coal hence coke was more abundant than the charcoal hitherto used.
By smelting.
By smelting.
The three important ingredients for making steel are coal, iron core, and limestone. Because steel contains iron, it is very common for it to develop iron oxide, or rust.
Iron ore was mixed with limestone and charcoal. The charcoal would be ignited, and air forced through the mix. The charcoal would removed the oxygen from the iron ore, leaving iron.
Man began smelting and using iron for the first time.
