Blast Furnace Ironmaking provides insight into and guidance for understanding the use of blast furnace processes in ferrous metallurgy. The book features collected R&D work by various experts in the field of ironmaking, the furnace operation, and material-specific case studies. The book:

• Discusses the recent scientific and technological advancements that have made the ironmaking process more efficient, automated, and environmentally friendly
• Focuses insight gained on the key topics such as thermodynamics and reaction kinetics, the fluid flow and heat transfer, various zones of a blast furnace, etc. that prevail in the process
• Outlines appropriate technologies of burden preparation through agglomeration and coke-making, as well as their key quality parameters
• Highlights the blast furnace slag, its characteristics-especially in case of high alumina burden-and its desulphurisation capacity
• Examines various methodologies for effective operation of the blast furnace and the control of variables to achieve greater productivity and increase fuel efficiency

The book provides integrated and comprehensive coverage on the subject aimed at advanced students and academicians in metallurgical engineering, and also serves as a technical reference to process technologists and R&D professionals seeking state-of-the-art information in the field of ferrous extraction.
