- A flammible gas fueled furnace modified for steelmaking and ore purification<br />
<br />
- Uses a highly insulated container with one or more air intakes that burners/torches are stuck through, as well as an oxygen lance in the top<br />
<br />
- Is expensive, but allows for steel production and ore purification<br />
