<p>A direct smelting process for producing metals from metalliferous feed material is disclosed. The process includes forming a molten bath having a metal layer and a slag layer on the metal layer and smelting injected metalliferous feed material in the metal layer. The process also includes generating an upward gas flow from the metal layer which entrains molten material that is in the metal layer and carries the molten material into the slay layer and forms a region of turbulence at least at the interface of the slag layer and the metal layer. The process also includes injecting a gas into the slag layer via a plurality of lances/tuyeres and generating turbulence in an upper region of the slag layer and projecting splashes, droplets and streams of molten material from the slag layer into a top space of the vessel that is above the slag layer.</p> |
