Converter gas (BOFG) is a by-product of the steel manufacturing process in steelworks. Its
usage as a substitute fuel instead of natural gas for fueling a metallurgical furnace seems to
be reasonable due to potential benefits as follows: CO2 emission reduction into the ambient
air and savings in purchasing costs of natural gas. Results of theoretical analysis focused on
implementing converter gas as a fuel for feeding a tunnel furnace for either steel plate
rolling, steel sheet hardening in its real working condition or both, are discussed. The …
