Erläuterungen zum Harmonisierten System (HS) A) Konverter Konverter sind metallurgische Apparate mit thermischer Reaktion, die jedoch nicht mit Feuerung ausgerüstet sind. Einzig mit Hilfe eines starken Sauerstoffstroms bewirken sie die Verbrennung oder Oxidation von gewissen Elementen des eingebrachten Materials, das zuvor schmelzflüssig gemacht oder auf hohe Temperatur gebracht wurde. Konverter dienen hauptsächlich zum Reinigen des Roheisens (Ausscheidung von Mangan, Silizium, Phosphor usw.) und zu dessen Umwandlung in Stahl (Verbrennung des Kohlenstoffs) bzw. auch zum Rösten von Kupfermatte, Nickelmatte oder Bleiglanz. Die am häufigsten vorkommenden Konverter sind birnenförmige oder zylindrische Behälter aus schweren Stahlplatten, die innen mit einem Futter aus feuerfestem Material ausgekleidet sind.
