00:01 In the blast furnace, ore, cork and seo -sosa.
00:15 C -o -4 -0 -3.
00:24 Entering the furnace from the top and the hot gas, hot air, is blasted from the bottom part of the furnace.
00:43 The reactions that happened in the furnace consist of these reactions.
00:49 Carbon in the form of the coke reacted with the oxygen and gives coe we balance it to here to here this co reacted with the oxide of iron f e f e2 o3 plus co2 we can balance it to here and through here it is in the first stage of reduction the second stage is fe 304 plus co gives feo plus co2 here it is 3 .0.
02:44 After that in the last stage fe feo plus co gives fe fe plus co2 these are the reactions that happens for the fe oxide after that we have something called flux it is co3 this flux is used for making the slag in the fairness it gives first it decomposes to coo plus co2...
