The composition of the exhaust gases from the converter process allows us to judge the degree of absorption of oxygen from the blast, the burnout of metallic iron from the matte and other features of the development of physical and chemical transformations in the converter bath...

The concept of blast plume temperature (temperature of the oxidation reaction zone in the converter bath), introduced in the book “Converter processing in non-ferrous metallurgy” was further used in the analysis of various aspects of converter operation ...
