Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

The current work investigated behavior and state of nanoscale particles in a gas cleaning system of an ore-thermal furnace. Generally, the topic seems interesting. However, some fetal problems exist. I do not recommend its publication in the current form.

1. The whole manuscript were not well written, e.g., the abstract is suggested to be re-written and the last sentence of the abstract could be canceled (The study is related to the direction of “Energy Efficient Technologies” of Saint Petersburg Mining University and carried out within the framework of the Russian Science Foundation Grant no. 22-29-00397).

2. Since the main work was done by numerical simulation, and some key issues towards numerical simulation should be presented, e.g., grid independence.

3. The quality of the figures should be improved, e.g., Fig.5 and Fig.6.

Round 2

Reviewer 1 Report

There is some improvement comparing with last version. However, some problems should still be addressed.

1. The abstract should be even more concise to present main works of the current manuscript.
2. The results done by simulation should be discussed and analyzed.
3. What is the main innovation of the current work, refering  with existing works?
