“…2,3) However, it has been pointed out that solution loss reaction in the NSC-tests, especially of highly reactive coke, might be overestimated, compared with that in an actual blast furnace where CO 2 /CO + CO 2 of ascending gas is varied between 0 and 0.5. Moreover, Goleczka et al 4) and Barnaba 5) assumed that weight loss percentages due to solution loss in actual blast furnaces were about 20-30% and 25%, respectively.…”
