How much coal coke is needed to run a blast furnace for one day?
that would depend on the size of the blast furnace.
What is the word equation for coke in a blast furnace?
(Extraction of Iron in a Blast Furnace: Step 1 and Step 2)Coke reacts with oxygen from the air to form carbon dioxide and a lot of heat.Carbon + Oxygen -> Carbon Dioxide + heatC(s) + O2(g) -> CO2(g)Carbon dioxide reacts with more coke to form carbon monoxideCarbon Dioxide + Carbon -> Carbon MonoxideCO2(g) + C(s) -> 2CO(g)
How is slag collected from a blast furnace?
iron is collected from blast furnace by drilling the taphole.Taphole is a hole drill and plug after cycle of time located in blast furnace bottom.
What is used in the furnace to extract the iron?
blast furnace
How burden calculated in blast furnace?
The burden in a blast furnace refers to the materials added to the furnace for the iron-making process. The burden typically includes iron ore, coke, and limestone. The burden calculation takes into account the proper proportions of these materials to achieve efficient iron production and maintain the desired chemical and physical balance within the furnace. Various factors, such as the quality of the materials and the operating conditions, influence the burden calculation in a blast furnace.
