A direct reduction plant is fed with iron ore pellets or lump ore. The pelletizing process is outside the system boundaries for the energyrelated consideration of Fig. 6 . Anyway, the process of pelletizing is less energyintensive than the sintering process and using directly lump ore instead of pellets is a possibility, as well.
At present, fossil fuels are the steel sector's bloodstream: 27 EJ (10 18 J) of coal, 3 EJ of gas and 5 EJ (1400 TWh) of electricity are consumed annually for the production of the mostly widely ...
The DREAF route significantly reduced the consumption of coke and coal while maintaining the same productivity as the BFBOF route, but still results in significant carbon emissions owing to the use of NG in the direct reduction ironmaking process. ... In terms of direct reduction process design and operation, ... Circored fine ore direct ...
In this paper, we propose and assess a potential design for a fossilfree steelmaking process based on direct reduction of iron ore with hydrogen. We show that hydrogen direct reduction steelmaking needs MWh of electricity per tonne of liquid steel, mainly for the electrolyser hydrogen production. ... but instead of coal and coke the ...

The ENERGIRON Process (Figure 1), based on the ZR scheme, is a major step in reducing the size and improving the efficiency of direct reduction plants. Reducing gases are generated by insitu in the reduction reactor, feeding natural gas as makeup to the reducing gas circuit and injecting oxygen at the inlet of the reactor.
The Fe3O4 and Fe2SiO4 in copper slag were successfully reduced to metallic iron by coalbased direct reduction. Under the best reduction conditions of 1300 °C reduction temperature, 30 min reduction time, 35 wt.% coal dosage, and 20 wt.% CaO dosage ( binary basicity), the Fe grade of obtained iron concentration achieved %, and the Fe recovery was %. The kinetic studies on ...

The aim is to produce steel by the direct reduction of iron ore with hydrogen, which would completely replace coke as a reducing agent. ... The direct reduction demonstration plant enables us to optimize the reduction process and how it interacts with the other process steps. ...

A thick slag layer is situated above the metal bath. Iron ore fines, coal and fluxes are injected directly into the melt in the smelt reduction vessel. The process uses iron ore fines directly with noncoking coal (5070% fixed carbon, 1038% volatile matter and 512% ash; less than 10% ash is preferred).
agglomerate fine iron ore dust in conjunction with other material (typically limestone) to form a product that can be added to the blast furnace. Another alternative to hot molten iron making is the direct reduction method. In this method, iron is reduced in its solid state using either coal or natural gas as a fuel.
In the TISCO Direct Reduction (TDR) process, iron ore, coal and dolomite particles are charged from the feed end, without any premixing, while only coal is injected from the discharge end of the ...
An innovative coalbased direct reduction process of lowgrade iron ore coal composite minipellets in lowtemperature rotary kiln has been developed by Central South University. In this approach, 38 mm pellets were made of mixture of sodium additives, iron ore and coal.
How to reduce the energy consumption of the rotary kilnelectric furnace (RKEF) process has become an important issue for the stainless steel industry. The aim of this study is to reduce the energy consumption of ferronickel production from saprolite nickel laterite in the RKEF process. The effects of the slag binary basicity, FeO content, and Cr2O3 content on the melting temperature and ...
The CoalOreDirectIronReduction (Codir) process combines features of the Waelz Kiln and the KruppRenn process [52]. The KruppRenn is an iron ore reduction process designed for lowgrade ores that at one time had over 40 commercial installations, but high energy costs and availability of highergrade ores led to the shutdown of all ...
DRI production Direct reduction of iron is the removal of oxygen from iron ore or other iron bearing materials in the solid state, without melting, as in the blast furnace. The reducing agents are carbon monoxide and hydrogen, coming from reformed natural gas, syngas or coal. Iron ore is used mostly in pellet and/or lumpy form.

Table 2: Specific hydrogen consumption and requirements for direct reduction Besides the hydrogen needed for the reduction of iron ore, energy is also required to heat the reducing gas. In the conventional direct reduction process this energy derives from a partial stream of the top gas of the Midrex shaft. Usage of
The gasbased direct reduction of iron ore pellets was carried out by simulating the typical gas composition in coal gasification process, Midrex and HylIII processes. The influences of gas composition and temperature on reduction were studied. Results show that the increasing of H2 proportion is helpful to improve the reduction rate. However, when φ(H2):φ(CO)>:1, changes of H2 content ...
