Abstract
An oxygen injector for a post combustion system used in an electric arc furnace includes a housing formed of a concave configured front wall and a spaced rear wall. The housing has a width greater than the spacing defined between the front wall and spaced rear wall. An oval configured conduit wall is located medially in the housing and extends from the rear to front wall to form an oval configured oxygen chamber and a water chamber with the oxygen chamber bound internally by the conduit wall. Orifices are formed in the front wall within the oxygen chamber.
