The technology of ironmaking is central to the production of steel. Offering a comprehensive approach, Blast Furnace Ironmaking provides insight into and guidance for understanding the use of blast furnace processes in this complex field of metallurgy.

· Discusses key topics in the ironmaking process and underlying principles.

· Describes appropriate agglomeration technologies and explains why, how, and where these processes add value to the iron- and steelmaking industries.

· Features material-specific case studies and addresses real-world problems and how to tackle them.

· Examines various methodologies for effective operation of the blast furnace and the control of variables to achieve greater productivity and increasing fuel efficiency.

Aimed at advanced students in metallurgical engineering, as well as process technologists and R&D professionals, the book delivers best practices and future perspectives to assist in advancing technological innovations in the field of ferrous extraction.
