3. Manufacturing:-
It is a process of converting raw
materials into finished goods
with the help of 6M’S.
7. Pig iron is manufactured in a tall , continious-working
furnace, known as blast furnace.
Charge of ore, fuel & flux are fed to the furnace
through a hopper at the top of the furnace.
A high temperature of 1300 C to 1650 C is obtained at
bottom of furnace by forcing in a blast of hot air
through the blast pipe surrounding the furnace.
The calcuim oxide formed by the decomposition of
lime stone combines all the impurities in form of slag.
The slag is removed and remaining product is called
pig iron.
PROCESS OF IRON MAKING

10. BASIC OXYGEN STEEL MAKING
PROCESS
PRIMARY STEEL MAKING:-
BOS METHODS ADD RECYCLED SCRAP STEEL
WITH MOLTEN IRON IN BOF (BASIC OXYGEN
FURNACE) AT HIGH TEMPARATURES
OXYGEN IS BLOWN THROUGH THE METAL
WHICH REDUCES THE CARBON CONTENT TO
BETWEEN 0 – 1.5 %
11.
12. PRIMARY STEEL MAKING:-
THE RECYCLED STEEL SCRAP AND MOLTEN IRON
IS FEED IN EAF PROCESS IN WHICH THE
MIXTURE IS HEATED UP TO 1650*C TO MELT THE
MIXTURE AND CONVERT IT IN TO HIGH QUALITY
STEEL
13. SECONDARY STEEL MAKING:-
IT INVOLVES TREATING THE MOLTEN STEEL
PRODUCED FROM (E.A.F) ROUTE TO ADJUST THE
STEEL COMPOSITION THIS IS DONE BY ADDING
OR REMOVING CERTAIN ELEMENTS OR
MANUPULATING THE TEMPARATURE AND
PRODUCTION ENVIRONMENT DEPENDING ON
THE TYPE OF STEEL REQUIRED..,,
THIS INVOLVES LIKE STIRRING…ETC
