Bessemer Steel [1]

Steel made directly from cast iron, by burning out a portion of the carbon and other impurities that the latter contains, through the agency of a blast of air which is forced through the molten metal; - so called from Sir Henry Bessemer, an English engineer, the inventor of the process.
