  • Abstract
    A new development in plasma furnace technology in which by relatively simple modifications a more or less conventional arc furnace can be made to produce a long stable plasma flame is described. A very promising application of this technique is in the steel melting as well as in direct reduction of fine iron ore, waste oxides, flotation concentrates, blast furnace dust, fly ash, mill scale, etc.
