Feasibility of an Iron and Steelmaking Process Combining Blast Furnace with Converter— MUSE-K Process

摘要

In this paper, the outline of MUSE-K process was introduced. The process involves a combination of the salient features of blast furnace technology with Basic Oxygen Furnace for steelmaking to produce steel in a single step. The advantages and uncertainties in this concept are presented and the ongoing further work is outlined.rnAlbeit the technological challenges the process present, the ,concept offers new thinking and offers a promising new process, based mainly on earlier known concepts.
