- Eliza Furnace Historic Site.
- The Eliza Furnace is a National Register site regarded as one of Pennsylvania's best preserved iron furnaces. Dating from 1846 the Eliza Furnace is one of only a few iron furnaces remaining in the United States which still retains its original heat exchanger piping. ...
- Eliza Furnace was constructed in 1845 and 1846. At its peak, the furnace employed over 90 people and utilzed 45 mules to produce about 1,080 tons of iron a year.
- The furnace was not a financial success, and operated only three years. ... Despite its early closing, Eliza Furnace helped bring the industrial revolution to the Blacklick Valley. A detailed history of the furnace is available here in PDF format. Additional information about Eliza Furnace and other iron furnaces in Pennsylvania can be found at the Industrial Archeology and PA Iron Furnace Sourcebook websites.
- The furnace is also located at the midpoint of the Ghost Town Trail, a 16-mile rail-trail in the Blacklick Creek Valley. ...

2. Casting Furnace
- www.metalwebnews.com
- Building a Metal Casting Furnace.
- The following gives a brief and somewhat sketchy description on how to build your own furnace for metal casting!.
- I have and have used for years a smaller furnace that will handle up to a #12 crucible, but needed a larger furnace from time to time. ... The idea here is don't reinvent the wheel---use readily available shapes for free!!! I had to have a piece of sheet metal rolled for my inside form, but my friend used a paper form for concrete casting for his 5 gallon bucket furnace. ...
- The second pic shows the furnace ready to cast the lining. ... ) Also, note the trolley that the furnace is mounted on. ...
- The third and last pic is the completed furnace. ... You don't need this if you are working from small furnaces, but at this size and for my #12 furnace it is a worthwhile addition--lids get heavy and take up space. ...
- One last thought, CALCINING! For new folks, you will need to calcine your furnace. ... You are removing the moisture PLUS making your furnace into a waterproof ceramic. After ramming the grog to make the furnace, cover with a wet towel for a day or so to insure a slow cure of the refractory. ... My method is to place a hot plate in the bottom of the furnace with the lid on--low heat! (for you Northern folk--a bundle of eve heater for ice dams will work great). After 6 to 12 hours depending on the size of the furnace, turn up the heat. After several increases in heat AND WHEN YOU DON'T SEE ANY STEAM COMING FROM THE FURNACE, you are ready to calcine. ... YOUR'E DONE! You may have a few hairline cracks, as I do, but they will close when you heat your furnace for casting. ...

- A furnace like this one could produce two to three tons of iron a day. ...

- Vesuvius Furnace - Model of new Technology.
- Named for an Italian volcano, the Vesuvius Furnace was built in 1833. ... The Vesuvius furnace, under the direction of William Firmstone, pioneered a new technique to reduce heat requirements and increase production of "hot blast" furnace systems. The furnace employed about 100 men who worked as laborers, teamsters, ore-diggers, blacksmith, carpenters, charcoal burners, storekeepers, and book keepers. ...
- The three ingredients were poured in the top of the furnace and then the charcoal was ignited. Air was blown (or blasted, hence the name blast furnace) up through the ore and fuel mixture. ...
- The route taken by the wagons leaving Vesuvius Furnace was west on Paddle Creek Road, and it was by design that the road was a gradual downhill grade. ...
- We believe it dates back to the iron furnace era. ...

7. The chemistry of steelmaking. Blast furnace.
- www.schoolscience.co.uk
- How does the blast furnace work?.
- The Blast Furnace is a large steel structure about 30 metres high. ... The furnace gets its name from the method that is used to heat it. Pre-heated air at about 1000oC is blasted into the furnace through nozzles near its base. ...
- The blast furnace at Redcar, which is one of the largest in Europe, has produced up to 11 000 tonnes per day (77 000 tonnes per week) but is currently running at 8000 tonnes per day. ...
- Redcar number 1 blast furnace.
- The hot air blast to the furnace burns the coke and maintains the very high temperatures that are needed to reduce the ore to iron. ...
- Because the furnace temperature is in the region of 1500oC, the metal is produced in a molten state and this runs down to the base of the furnace.
- The furnace temperature is also high enough to decompose limestone into calcium oxide .
- The slag is collected after the denser iron has been run out of a tap hole near the bottom of the furnace. ...
- The production of iron in a Blast Furnace is a continuous process. The furnace is heated constantly and is re-charged with raw materials from the top while it is being tapped from the bottom. Iron making in the furnace usually continues for about ten years before the furnace linings have to be renewed.
- The energy costs of the operation are kept to a minimum by collecting and cleaning the hot gas that leaves the furnace. ... It can be re-used as a fuel for other steelmaking processes or to heat up the air blast to the furnace.
- The metal that leaves the Blast Furnace contains between 4% and 5% of carbon. ...

Ron) Dave Gas Fired Crucible Furnace The idea was to make a gas furnace that would reach a temperature to melt steel. ... It needs to be mentioned that handling molten steel, operating a furnace, and handling some of the materials in making the furnace, ARE dangerous and could possibly be FATAL if done incorrectly. This is the first furnace I have built. ... The furnace is fueled from below and the crucible sits on riser blocks giving from 2" to 3" clearance. ... A 4" steel door hinge is welded to the upper and lower shell, this is the pivot point to open the furnace. ... I did however use a 150 cfm blower after the furnace reaches 3000 degrees. ... The solution would be to have the blower removed from the furnace and to have an air pipe with a fusable "gate," perhaps heavy paper, in its bottom to allow molten metal to escape should the crucible fail.
