#REDIRECT [[Open Source Charcoal Blast Furnace]]
*One of the two main methods of [[Smelting]] (producing pure metals from oxides) (Along with [[Reduction Gasses]] such as hydrogen or syngas from an external source (See Also [[Hydrogen Reduction Smelting]]\
*Unless modified somehow (Look into this) an induction furnace can't do this
*Using hydrogen or syngas for reduction via producing the gas sperately can work as well, but this is more complex and probably doesn't scale down well (Needs More Research)
*This is an older tried and true method
*Will most likely use [[Charcoal]] or [[Charcoal Pellets]], Spheres may be intresting
*Can this be dual function? as a gassifier when not in use as a blast furnace?
 
=Industry Standards=
*Most (or all? needs research) designs are larger scale that what OSE will most likely need (Large scale will most likely be via reduction gas as it is cleaner, yet is more complex and larger scale
 
=Existing Open Soucre Designs=
*
 
=Minimum Viable Product=
*Should be able to make from moulds and hand/tool work, or be able to be printed with a large [[Ceramic Printer]]
*Mainly Ceramic Construction
*Uses Biomass or more likely some form of [[Charcoal]]
*Most likely [[Hot Blast]] , but also look into [[Cold Blast]] and perhaps [[Reduction Gas Injection]]
 
=Basic Design=
==Main Body==
*A Ceramic Tube/Cylendar With a Throat around the middle for holding the contents temporarily
 
==Tuyres==
*Need to determine how many, what diameter etc
*[[Tuyres]]
 
=Forced Gas System=
*Air or Oxygen, or Mix (Or Air-Oxy, or Air-Syngas, or Air-Hydrogen, or Hydo-Oxy? NEEDS MORE RESEARC)
 
=Control System=
*
 
=Power Pannel=
*
 
=Charcoal/Biomas Auger + Storage=
*A Simple Auger+Bin System
 
=Ore/Feedstock Auger + Storage=
*A Simple Auger+Bin System
 
=Collection==
*Via Seperate Spouts, or Via A Funnel/Hole at base?
*Water Collection?
 
=Insulation + Recovery=
*Double Wall
*Basalt Fiber/Fiberglass Insulation?
*TECs?
*Water Heating/Steam Generation?
