Question: The Bottom-blown oxygen converter is a furnace developed by the company that is now part of the multinational company of what nationality?

Context paragraphs:
Ford ATX transmission: The FLC-"Fluid Link Converter"- ATX was a 3-speed hydraulic automatic transaxle produced by Ford Motor Company from 1981 through 1994.  It was Ford's first automatic transmission developed for front wheel drive and transverse engine location.  Used in the company's four-cylinder-powered cars ranging from the Escort to the Taurus, the transaxle had a lockup torque converter, but no overdrive.  It was controlled by a throttle or "kickdown" cable, the speedometer used an air powered cable, and had no computer controls.

Nassawango Iron Furnace Site: The Nassawango Iron Furnace was built in 1830 by the Maryland Iron Company to produce iron from bog ore deposits in its vicinity.  It is notable for its innovative use of a "hot blast" technique for smelting the iron, which had only been developed in England around 1828, and which may have been added to the Nassawango Furnace in 1837.  Due to the variable nature of the bog ore deposits, the furnace stopped operations in 1849.

Biopure: Biopure Corporation was a biopharmaceutical company that specialized in oxygen therapeutics (blood substitutes) for both human and veterinary use.  The company developed, manufactured, and marketed oxygen therapeutics, designed to transport oxygen to the body's tissues.  The oxygen technology uses hemoglobin-based oxygen carrying molecules in solution (HBOCs) to increase oxygen transfer to the tissues.  The competing companies with Biopure were Allied Pharmaceutical, Northfield Laboratories, Baxter International and Hemosol of Toronto.  The company developed two products: Hemopure (HBOC-1) <nowiki>[hemoglogin glutamer-250 (bovine)]</nowiki> for human use, and Oxyglobin (HBOC-301) <nowiki>[hemoglobin glutamer-200 (bovine)]</nowiki> for veterinary use.  As of April 2001, Hemopure was approved for commercial sale in South Africa for treatment of acute anemia in general surgery.  However, Hemopure has not been able to gain approval in the U.K. or the U.S. because of safety and reliability concerns of the European Commission and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) respectively.  The company formed an agreement with the U.S. Navy to aid in preclinical testing of Hemopure for out-of-hospital treatment of trauma patients in hemorrhagic shock.  Oxyglobin is the only oxygen therapeutic approved for treatment of canine anemia in both Europe and the U.S. and has treated thousands of cases.  Unable to obtain FDA approval for Hemopure to date, Biopure ceased operations in 2009 and its assets were purchased by OPK Biotech LLC in September 2009.  On July 16, 2009 Biopure announced it had filed for bankruptcy protection under Chapter 11, Title 11, United States Code and entered into an agreement with OPK Biotech LLC for the sale of substantially all of its assets .

Pine Grove Railroad Station: The Pine Grove Railroad Station was the end of the line for the 1870 South Mountain Railroad, which transported materials from limestone pits and three operating ore mines for the Pine Grove Iron Works.  The station had a roundhouse and, by 1872, a depot with siding (the 1877 South Mountain Railway and Mining Company's plan for an 1880 westward rail extension to an ore bed was never built.)  "Pine Grove" was listed on the Gettysburg and Harrisburg Railroad's passenger schedule of April 21, 1884; and the SMRR railroad offices and repair shops (Jno.  H. Christman, Master Mechanic) were transferred to the 1891 Hunter's Run and Slate Belt Railroad with the station servicing the 1892 Fuller Brick and Slate Company south of the tracks (iron works production ended in 1895.)  Despite a 1902 forest fire in the area that destroyed buildings, both "Pine Grove Furnace" and "Pine Grove Park" were listed as 1904 HR & SB RR railway stations, and in 1912 new Reading Company track was laid to Pine Grove on "the former Hunters Run and Slate Belt Line".  The Pine Grove area was sold to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in 1913, the tracks and ties have been removed, and the station area is part of the Pine Grove Furnace State Park.

Ellen Furnace Site (38CK68): Ellen Furnace Site (38CK68) is a historic archaeological site located near Gaffney, Cherokee County, South Carolina.  The site includes a partially collapsed but well-preserved iron furnace constructed about 1838 of quarried stone and two earthen sluiceways.  Also present are building foundations, tramway road beds, and ore mines.  It is directly associated with the nearby Susan Furnace Site.  Both were outlying furnace operations associated with the manufacturing complex at Coopersville owned by the Nesbitt Company and later the Swedish Ironworks.  The Coopersville Ironworks along with the Susan and Ellen Furnaces were developed between 1835 and 1843 by the Nesbitt Iron Manufacturing Company, the largest iron company in South Carolina.  The Nesbitt Company was dissolved in the late 1840s, and the Swedish Iron Manufacturing Company of South Carolina operated the ironworks from 1850 until the American Civil War.

Glencore: Glencore plc (an acronym for Global Energy Commodity Resources) is an Anglo–Swiss multinational commodity trading and mining company with headquarters in Baar, Switzerland, and a registered office in Saint Helier, Jersey.  The current company was created through a merger of Glencore with Xstrata on 2 May 2013.  s of 2015 , it ranked tenth in the Fortune Global 500 list of the world's largest companies.

Wave Dragon: Wave Dragon is a floating slack-moored energy converter of the overtopping type, developed by the Danish company Wave Dragon Aps.  Wave Dragon is a joint EU research project, including partners from Austria, Denmark, Germany, Ireland, Portugal, Sweden, and the UK.  It was the world's first offshore wave energy converter.

Basic oxygen steelmaking: Basic oxygen steelmaking (BOS, BOP, BOF, and OSM), also known as Linz–Donawitz-steelmaking or the oxygen converter process is a method of primary steelmaking in which carbon-rich molten pig iron is made into steel.  Blowing oxygen through molten pig iron lowers the carbon content of the alloy and changes it into low-carbon steel.  The process is known as "basic" because fluxes of burnt lime or dolomite, which are chemical bases, are added to promote the removal of impurities and protect the lining of the converter.

Bottom-blown oxygen converter: The Bottom-blown Oxygen Converter or BBOC is a smelting furnace developed by the staff at Britannia Refined Metals Limited (“BRM”), a British subsidiary of MIM Holdings Limited (which is now part of the Glencore group of companies).  The furnace is currently marketed by Glencore Technology.  It is a sealed, flat-bottomed furnace mounted on a tilting frame that is used in the recovery of precious metals.  A key feature is the use of a shrouded lance to inject oxygen through the bottom of the furnace, directly into the precious metals contained in the furnace, to oxidize base metals or other impurities as part of their removal as slag.
