The purpose of a blast furnace is to chemically reduce and physically convert iron oxides into liquid iron called "hot metal". The blast furnace is a huge, steel stack lined with refractory brick, where iron ore, coke and limestone are dumped into the top, and preheated air is blown into the bottom.

Historically, most iron ore is converted to iron using a blast furnace, although a number of newer technologies are replacing this process. The production of iron requires three important raw materials: iron ore, coal converted to "coke", and limestone.

The primitive English furnace took the name of bloomery. It never did evolve into the high bloomery or stückofen. Britain copied the blast furnace after Continental models, without going through the intermediate stages.

In the production of iron, iron ore, iron scrap, and fluxes (limestone and/or dolomite) are charged into a blast furnace along with coke for fuel. The coke is combusted to produce carbon monoxide, which reduces the iron ore to a molten iron product.
