principle, which involves removing all the impurities from
molten pig iron by oxidation and adding known quantities of
carbon and other elements to the molten iron to obtain steel
of desired composition. Pig iron, scrap iron and scrap steel are
the raw materials for making steel. The Bessemer process is
the commonly used method since it is the most economical.

Meaning of Right and Wrong application of Science.

The right application of science from a moral
perspective is when the application is used to engender
the development of society, such as provision of shelter,
improvement of living conditions, improving life
expectancy, fighting diseases, producing gadgets that can
generate income, employment for the nation and its
citizens.
Wrong use includes any use that will lead to
dehumanising individuals or groups or cause death and
suffering. Any use that does not recognise the sacredness
of life is a wrong use.

Implications
1. Some applications are harmful to individuals and
even the society. Such applications ought to be
controlled. For example, uncontrolled use of drugs
leads to drug abuse. This may ruin the individual drug
user and may lead to committing serous crimes in the
society.
2. Children may learn new things and negative
vocabulary from watching films. However, watching
late night films may lead to children being corrupt or
premature and unsafe sexual practices.
