I have been interpreting that phrase, along with pictures and video of the incident, to mean that the explosion and fire was the result of a failure in one of the blast furnaces stoves instead of the blast furnace itself. The dome part probably indicates it occurred near the top of the stove as they tend to be dome shaped.
