<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To minimize the loss of melting matter and solid matter accompanying exhaust gas, by providing an exhaust gas duct, which extends from a refining container, with the first section which has a relatively slight upward inclination to the horizontal, and the second section which extends with a relatively slight gradient to the horizontal, in order. SOLUTION: A refining container for directly refining iron ore has a sidewall 5 which forms a roughly cylindrical barrel including an upper barrel section 51 and a lower barrel section 53, upward from the side 56 of a hearth, and is provided with an extended exhaust gas duct 9 outward from its upper section. Moreover, it has a front furnace 57 and a tap hole 61 for discharging the molten metal continuously. In this case, the exhaust gas duct 9 is provided with the first section 31 which inclines upward at an angleαof about, for example, 7 deg. to the horizontal from an inlet end 63, and the second section 33 with a steep gradient which extends vertically from the other end of the first section 31. As a result, this container minimizes the loss of the molten matter and the solid matter which are discharged together with the exhaust gas.</p> |
