    Definition gas obtained as a by-product of the production of steel in an oxygen furnace and it is recovered on leaving the furnace Reference International Energy Agency, Statistics-Coal Questionnaire, 1998
    Comment The gas is also known as converter gas or LD gas. The quantity of fuel should be reported on a gross calorific valueSteel production processes typically dispose large volumes of specialty gases. Three different process stages – from coal to steel – provide three different gas types: coke gas, blast furnace gas and converter gas. - Coke gas: Composition: 50-70% H2, 25-30% CH4 - LHV: ≈5 kWh/m3N- Blast furnace gas: Composition: 5% H2, 20% CO - LHV: ≈0,9 kWh/m3N- Converter gas: Composition: 60+% CO - LHV: ≈3 kWh/m3NRef: GE Energy. http://www.gepower.com/prod_serv/products/recip_engines/en/downloads/as_steel_industry_eng.pdf [18.11.2010]
