Blast Furnace Causes Global Warming ?

Global Warming is a dangerous for the poeple, we know the impact global
warming is increase the term of earth, the weather is summer,Prolonged drought.
Causes global warming is popolation. Global warming can the decrease with the
project. Global warming can demage the people because Global warming is very
dangereous, example : we very needed O
2
,we breathe using the O
2
if O
2
not the
high quality we can the decrease of health. Global warming can demage of heart,
why ?? because the O
2
in global warming is not to good, its can the disease
Global warming is a serious problem that a lot of attention at this time.
Consequences of global warming include increasing the average temperature of
the earth, prolonged drought, dimpled split ecosystems, CO2 gas has the greatest
contribution to the greenhouse effect, and the procces of blast furnace can demage
the ozone surface because the spend CO2, CO, and sulfur. Global warming is the
unequivocal and continuing rise in the average temperature of Earth's climate
system.90% of the warming has occurred in the oceans.Despite the oceans'
dominant role in energy storage, the term "global warming" is also used to refer to
increases in average temperature of the air and sea at Earth's surface.

Blast furnace is very needed raw materials to procces. The materials of
blast furnace are iron ore, limestone, and etc . in addition, the blast furnace also
requires the tuyeres. tuyeres work that requires the air and blast furnace can find
in krakatau posko, indoferro.You can find raw materials of blast furnace, you can
be find ore can be find in the ground and under the sea. For find the raw materials
unexpected place. I can conclude that the different causes of global warming blast
furnace. So i dont agree if blast furnace causes global warming
Blast Furnace Smelting a metallurgical process carried out in shaft furnaces, used
mainly in nonferrous metallurgy for the smelting of lead bullion, copper, copper
matte, and nickel matte. The charge is loaded from above and consists of lumped
metal-bearing raw material, fluxes, and coke. As the coke is burned and the
materials are smelted, the charge descends; the air or oxygen required for the
combustion of the coke is blown through a tuyere, and the combustion products
move toward the charge. An oxygen zone is created near the tuyeres, in which the
coke is combusted primarily to CO
2
, most of the heat is released, and the
maximum temperature is reached. A reduction zone is formed beyond the oxygen
zone, in which the hot gases react with the succeeding layers of coke in the
reaction
CO
2
+ C = 2CO
The gases become enriched with carbon dioxide as their temperature decreases
since the reaction proceeds with the absorption of heat; the reaction virtually
ceases at 800C.
Reduction, sulfidizing, and oxidation variants of blast furnace smelting are used in
nonferrous metallurgy. Reduction blast furnace smelting of lead produces lead
bullion, slag, dust, and gases. Copper matte is also formed if the agglomerate has
a high content of copper and sulfur. The exhaust gases pass through an electrical
filter or bag filter that traps dusts with a high content of zinc and lead. Sulfidizing
blast furnace smelting of nickel oxide ores with the addition of pyrites or gypsum
is performed in a weakly reducing atmosphere and produces matte. Oxidation
blast furnace smelting of copper sulfide ores is designed to produce copper matte
and remove barren rock with the slag, as well as to oxidize a portion of the sulfur
of the sulfides and remove it as sulfuric anhydride; two variants of the process are
pyritic and semipyritic smelting. Copper-sulfur blast furnace smelting with the
production of elemental sulfur is a combined oxidation-reduction process.
Major trends in the effort to improve blast furnace smelting, in addition to further
development of the design of shaft furnaces, include oxygen enrichment of the
oxygen blast, heating of the blast, improvement of charge preparation, automation
of control of the smelting process, and the combination of blast furnace smelting
with processes for the subsequent extraction of valuable metals from slags and the
improvement of gas and dust trapping.
Advantage of the blast furnace is Full combustion,no black smoke. Meet
the demand of environmental protection. No secondary pollution, good operating
conditions, Hot air is very clean,can be adjustable easily. When hot air is supplied
continuously, Operate simply, adjust easily, High security, there is no danger of
explosion, Equipment is durable, low cost of operation, easy maintenance, In
normal operation there is no additional outlet, all the hot air flows into
dryer.Applications of blast furnace is Building materials: desulfurized gypsum,
ceramic fiber, insulation board.
So blast furnace cant the causes of global warming because no secondary
pollution, good operating conditions, high security, no danger of explosion.
