<p>The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing molten iron by injecting a hydrocarbon gas and an apparatus for manufacturing molten iron using the same. A method for manufacturing molten iron according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: i) converting iron ore into reduced materials while passing the iron ore through a reduction reactor, ii) charging lumped carbonaceous materials into a melter-gasifier connected to the reduction reactor and forming a coal-packed bed in the melter-gasifier, iii) charging the reduced materials into the melter-gasifier connected to the reduction reactor, injecting oxygen, vapor, and hydrocarbon gas together into a lower portion of the coal-packed bed and manufacturing molten iron, and iv) supplying a reducing gas discharged from the melter-gasifier to the reduction reactor. The vapor is injected to prevent the oxygen and the hydrocarbon gas from contacting each other in the manufacturing of molten iron.</p> |
