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.
Iron was one the sources in the industrial revolution.
The use of coke pig iron in iron production made producing iron easier and caused a rapid expansion of its use during the Industrial Revolution. The Industrial Revolution allowed many countries to experience economic growth.

Steel was lighter, cheaper, and stronger than iron, allowing for constructions and technologies that were impossible before. Steel was important to Second Industrial Revolution because it was much lighter compared to iron. --------------- It was cheaper than iron.
Henry Cort was responsible for developing the puddling process in iron smelting. This process involved stirring molten iron in a reverberatory furnace to remove impurities and produce higher quality iron. Cort's method played a significant role in the Industrial Revolution by improving the efficiency of iron production.
