Advantages:

- allowed steel to be produced without fuel

- using the impurities of the iron to create the necessary heat

- reduced the costs of steel production

Disadvantages:

- these elements could have been removed by adding a basic flux such as lime, but the basic sl*g produced would have degraded the acidic refractory lining of Bessemer's converter.
