    Carbon Dioxide Formation

    The reaction where coke and oxygen produce carbon dioxide in a furnace.

    Carbon Monoxide Reduction

    A process where carbon monoxide reduces iron(III) oxide to produce iron and carbon dioxide.

    Coke Reduction

    A high-temperature process where coke reduces iron(III) oxide directly to iron.

    Molten Iron Settling
