The diagram above shows the inputs (left side) and outputs (right side) of an iron blast furnace. Create a material balance table using the compositions above, and the following conditions: • The burden which contains the iron ore, flux, and coke is 54% Fe. The Fe ratio in Fe2O3 and Fe3O4 is 1:1. • The burden has 450 kg moisture • 850 kg slag is produced per 1000 kg pig iron 1600 kg of coke is consumed per 1000 kg of ore. (coke composition: 94% carbon and 4% moisture) Assumptions: 1. All O₂ is consumed in the process. 2. The iron oxides are reduced indirectly. 3. N₂, H₂O, and Al2O3 are all inert. 4. All Fe in burden reports to pig iron.
