Calcium oxide Magnesium oxide Iron and aluminum . The iron from the blast furnaceswas poured into a mixer, from whichit was weighed. The direct process is one by whichthe steel is made from the ore in oneoperation. In ordinary coke blast-furnace practice successive casts varytoo much in Si and S to allow of takingthe metal as it flows from the furnaceinto ladles and from them to the con-verter or open-hearth furnace. It is,therefore, poured first in
