The BOF is intended for decarburizing the hot metal using pure oxygen gas with types of top-blown?bottom-blown and side-blown. As a result of this high productivity, the BOF replaced the open hearth furnace, which was a much slower process. Have a capacity of 150-350tons, can decarburize 200 tons of hot metal from 4.3% C to 0.04% C during 20 minutes.
