There is no way within the laws of physics that there was enough heat generated by the fires in the buildings and/or the act of the buildings themselves falling that pools of molten steel would be created and remain molten for several weeks at sub-basement levels.

For thousands of years iron age smelters were used to create just these types of molten metal puddles. All they used was a dried mud kiln to insulate a charcoal fire and blow some air on the charcoal though a blowpipe.

Those conditions would have been present in many parts of the 6 story debris pile. The fires, insulated by pulverized drywall and concrete and fed air by the temperature difference on various ends of the snaking tunnels of twisted wreckage would have created, by random, natural smelters.



This photo of the still burning debris pile was taken three months after the collapse.
