Data set use approval

General comment The process described is associated with the production of hot metal through blast-furnace ironmaking. This process involves the transformation of iron ores (sinter, pellets, lump ore) and scrap metal into molten iron. It is typically used by the steel manufacturing industry as a primary step in the production of steel. This molten iron, or hot metal, is an essential raw material for steelmaking processes, particularly in integrated steel mills where it will be further processed into various steel products.
