Amanda and Bellefonte … Answers to Ironmaking
Abstract
To produce the hot metal required to triple its steelmaking capacity at Ashland, Armco has built one new blast furnace (Amanda, at right above) and rebuilt another (Bellefonte, at left); together they will eventually produce 6800 tpd. Amanda's automatic charging system, process instrumentation, and potential 4200 tpd capacity, and Bellefonte's pulverized coal injection system combine to make this one of the most modern ironmaking installations in the world.
