Question

In the following MCQ, identify the correct option and justify.

Which is not an indication of Channeling in Blast Furnace?

a. Furnace takes air with increase in pressure drop

b. High exit gas temperature

c. High CO/CO2 ratio

d. Higher flue dust emission

Answer 1

‘Furnace takes air with increase in pressure drop’ is not an indication of Channeling in Blast Furnace? According to Arora, (2018) the condition should state ‘Furnace takes air without increase in pressure drop.’ Other properties include high exit gas temperature, high CO/CO2 ratio, higher flue dust emission, and increased coke rate.
