Abstract

See full text

. The rates of injection of the oxygen-containing gas and fuel/reductant by said at least one lance are controlled to achieve required, sufficient reducing conditions; and, in the reactor above the bath, the combustion gases generated by the smelting are post-combusted. The controlling of step (c) is conducted to result in the injected oxygen-containing gas having an oxygen content of from about 40 volume % to about 100 volume % and sufficient for a degree of combustion in excess of 60 wt % of the fuel/reductant injected by the at least one lance.
