Abstract
An improved apparatus for reactor iron making has a furnace body to melt raw material, typically as scrap, a shaft to heat the raw material, and a raw material supply bucket, these three components being arranged vertically, with an exhaust gas combustion tower positioned close to the shaft. Raw material is supplied to the shaft with this apparatus by the bucket, and, after being heated by exhaust gas from the furnace body, the raw material is charged into the furnace body by the opening/closing operation of a shaft damper and a furnace body cover. Exhaust gas is introduced from the furnace body into the combination tower, air is supplied in stages, the temperature of the gas is gradually raised through combustion of CO, and the gas is used to heat the raw material in the shaft.
