What is your question? Methane is natural gas, which is a cheap and plentiful fuel. Oxygen is used in place of air to increase the flame temperature. Steel has a pour point higher than a methane air flame temperature.

I mean, this burner is not used to melt the metal. It preheat the ladle to approx. 700-1000C.
