Direct reduction processes may be classified, according to the type of the reducing agent used, to gasbased and coalbased processes. In 2000, DRI produced from the gasbased processes accounted for 93%, while the coalbased processes produced 7%. Gasbased processes have shaft furnaces for reducing.
WhatsApp: +86 18037808511Kobe Steel has developed coalbased direct reduction (DR) technologies, the FASTMET, FASTMELT and ITmk3 processes, which reduce carbon composite agglomerates (pellets or briquettes) on the hearth of a rotary hearth furnace (RHF). This paper outlines the features of each process, status of technical development and commercialization.
WhatsApp: +86 18037808511In a DR process, iron ore pellets and/or lump iron ores are reduced by a reducing gas to produce DRI or hot briquetted iron (HBI). Depending on the generation of the reducing gas, two different DR processes are commercially available: gasbased and coal/oilbased.

Production of direct reduced iron from indigenous raw materials is an attractive alternative to the use of scrap for electric steelmaking or for a DRbased integrated steel plant. The SL/RN process is a proven coalbased direct reduction technology, its versatility being characterised by flexibility in the use of raw materials (lump ...

WhatsApp: +86 18037808511ULCORED is a direct reduction (DR) process, which produces DRI (direct reduced iron) in a shaft furnace, either from natural gas (NG) or from reducing gas obtained by gasification of coal. Offgas from the shaft is recycled into the process after carbon dioxide (CO2) has been captured, which leaves the DR plant in a concentrated stream and ...
WhatsApp: +86 18037808511DRI or sponge iron refers to porous iron produced by the DR process.a solidstate reaction process (, solidsolid or solidgas reaction) in which removable oxygen is removed from the iron oxide, using coal or reformed natural gas as reductants, below the melting and fusion point of the lump ore or agglomerates of fine ore.
WhatsApp: +86 18037808511Sponge iron means porous iron produced by direct reduction reduction (DR) process is a solidstate reaction process ( solidsolid or solidgas reaction) by which removable oxygen is removed from the iron ore, using coal or reformed natural gas as reductants, below the melting and fusion point of the lump ore or agglomerates of fine ore [].

Process concepts based on the BF hearth Several process designs were proposed in which melting and gasification takes place in a coke bed, in much the same way as the final melting stage in ...
WhatsApp: +86 18037808511The work proposes a perspective on the direct reduction of iron (DRI) using hydrogen. Typically, iron is produced in blast furnaces (BFI) by the reduction of iron ore with carbonrich materials such as coal or coke. Greenhouse emissions may be drastically reduced by introducing DRI coal/oilbased, and further reduced by using methanebased DRI.

WhatsApp: +86 18037808511In Fig. 1, we show the design of the hydrogen direct reduction (HDR) process on which the developed chemical process model presented later on in this chapter is based. Iron ore is preheated and fed into a reduction shaft, where it is converted to direct reduced iron (DRI) and further compacted to hot briquetted iron (HBI).

Hot HBI from briquetting is separated to individual briquettes and cooled. Coal Based Direct Reduction : Coal based direct reduction technologies involve reduction of iron oxides in a rotary kiln by using noncoking coal as reductant.

By the principle of mass conservation, the balance must leave the process, which for the DR process, is in the gaseous form as CO 2.
