Abstract: A method and apparatus for gasifying a solid carbonaceous material such as coal is disclosed in which powdery coal is top-blown together with oxygen gas and steam onto a molten metal bath through a non-immersing multihole lance, said powdery coal is blown separately from the oxygen gas and steam, and the steam is commingled with the oxygen gas within the lance before they are injected out of the lance.

Abstract: Herein disclosed is a lance structure for use with a top-blown converter. The lance structure is constructed to include a cylindrical sheath having a bottom wall and a flux supply tube disposed at the center of the sheath and defining a passage for carrying slag-forming flux in a powdered form. Further inclusive are a plurality of oxygen supply tubes which are arranged in the sheath and around the flux supply tube and which define oxygen supply passages. From the oxygen supply tubes, there lead a corresponding number of Laval nozzles which have their exits opened in the sheath bottom so that the oxygen gas supplied through the oxygen supply passages may be blown in the form of supersonic jets to penetrate into the molten iron contained in the converter. The flux supply tube is formed with ports which are opened into the Laval nozzles just upstream of the exits thereof to feed the flux together with a carrier gas to the supersonic oxygen jets so that the carrier gas flows may merge into the oxygen jets.
