ChemistryTesting and analysing substancesGCSEAll boards Created by: laurenCreated on: 19-02-11 20:30 The Blast Furnace The Blast Furnace In at the top goes limestone, iron ore, coke limestone=calcium carbonate iron ore=iron oxide coke=carbon Hot air is pumped in the furnace at the bottom. Then at the end of the furncae **** and molton iron come out of it. 1 of 5 The Blast Furnace 500 degrees Then 500 degrees is near the top of the furnace. At 500 degrees Carbon Monoxide takes oxygen from the ore to leave iron. word equation iron oxide+ carbon monoxide -> iron+ carbon dioxide symbol equation Fe2O3+ 3CO -> 2Fe+3Co2 2 of 5 The Blast Furnace 1000 degrees This is in the middle of the furnace. Here carbon dioxide is converted to carbon monoxide. word equation carbon dioxide+ carbon -> carbon monoxide symbol equation Co2+C -> 2CO 3 of 5 The Blast Furnace 1500 degrees This is near the bottom of the furnace. Here carbon dioxide is made. word equation carbon+oxygen -> carbon dioxide symbol equation C+O2 -> Co2 4 of 5 The Blast Furnace Symbols carbon- C calcium carbonate- CaCo3 iron oxide- Fe2O3 carbon dioxide-C02 cabon monoxide-CO iron- Fe hot air/oxygen-O2 5 of 5
