The process cannot be shut down. Blast Furnace Application: The main application of the blast furnace is to smelt the iron from its ore and The pig iron formed during the process is used for the production of various grades of steel. The slag formed in the blast furnace can be used as raw material for the production of cement. More Resources:

Modern high capacity BFs operate with high blast temperature and low blast humidity, by adjusting the amount of PCI to control the furnace temperature. In many furnaces, the blast temperature is stabilized at 1,230 deg C to 1,250 deg C, and the moisture in blast is stabilized at 10 g/N cum to 15 g/N cum.

The paper reviews recent developments of blast furnace instrumentation. Instruments and sensors required for monitoring and controlling the blast furnace, from charging to tapping are reviewed.

modern blast furnace slag processing system. Today, blast furnace slag is a saleable product (granulated slag sand used as CO 2-friendly substitute of clinker in cement production) rather than a difficult and costly waste material.Paul Wurth has developed the INBA ® slag granulation process, incorporating our proprietary dynamic INBA dewatering drum.
