<br/><br/>The Operation of Contemporary Blast Furnace -- The Activation of the Hearth -- The Structure of Stock Column and the Control of Gas Distribution -- The Stabilization Furnace Temperature -- The Control of Slag Composition -- Tapping of Iron and Slag -- Basic Operation of Blast Furnace -- Precaution and Disposition of Furnace Breakage -- Scaffolding -- Blast Furnace Blowing on -- Blowing out, Banking and Blowing off -- The Explosion of Blast Furnace. 
<br/><br/> This book focuses on how to keep blast furnaces running stably and smoothly with low consumption and long operating life spans. Assessing and adjusting blast furnace performance are key to operation. The book describes in detail cases of both successful and failed blast furnace operation. It also demonstrates various phenomena and “symptoms” in the smelting process that have rarely been studied before, e.g. abnormal gas distribution, bending loss of tuyere, slag crust fall-off, blast furnace thickening, and hearth accumulation. As such, it will help readers understand internal phenomena in blast furnaces, providing a basis for developing intelligent control and management systems. .
