Answer:

Smelting is a process of applying heat to ore in order to extract a base metal. ... The oxygen in the ore binds to carbon at high temperatures due to the lower potential energy of the bonds in carbon dioxide (CO 2). Smelting most prominently takes place in a blast furnace to produce pig iron, which is converted into steel.
