Description: This photograph depicts workers pouring molten steel from a Bessemer converter into waiting ingot molds. Bessemer converters release oxygen gas through molten iron, which reacts with carbon and and other impurities to increase the quality of the steel, as well as producing a large flame. This photograph belongs to the Youngstown Sheet and Tube Audiovisual Archives, so its subject is likely located at a Youngstown company plant. View on Ohio Memory.

Description: In this photograph depicting a pair of Bessemer converters, the left Bessemer converter is being blown while the right converter is being filled. To the bottom, steel is poured into ingot molds. Bessemer converters were often arranged in pairs like in this depiction in order to maximize capacity, as one could be filled or emptied while the other was blown. Bessemer converters release oxygen gas through molten iron, which reacts with carbon and and other impurities to increase the quality of the steel, as well as producing a large flame.

Description: This photograph depicts a paired set of Bessemer converters. The one on the left is being blown, and the one on the right is being filled. At the bottom, steel is being poured into ingot molds. Bessemer converters release oxygen gas through molten iron, which reacts with carbon and and other impurities to increase the quality of the steel, as well as producing a large flame. They were often operated paired, as depicted here, in order to increase output. One could be filled or emptied while the other was blown. This photograph belongs to the Youngstown Sheet and Tube Audiovisual Archives, so its subject is likely located at a Youngstown company plant. View on Ohio Memory.
