Iron ore direct reduction is an attractive alternative steelmaking process in the context of greenhouse gas mitigation. To simulate the process and explore possible optimization, we developed a systemic, multiscale process model. The reduction of the iron ore pellets is described using a specific grain model, reflecting the transformations from hematite to iron. The shaft furnace is modeled as ...
The rotary kiln DRI process offers 11% and % lower GHG emissions on the lowest and highest end of the sensitivity band, when compared to the coal gasifier DRI process. However, if ore pelletization is uniformly considered for all DRI process, the emissions of the coal gasifier process could be up to % lower than the rotary kiln process ...
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 ...

Direct reduced iron (DRI) is the product which is produced by the direct reduction of iron ore or other iron bearing materials in the solid state by using noncoking coal or natural gas. Processes which produce DRI by reduction of iron ore below the melting point of the iron are normally known as the direct reduction (DR) processes.
DRI production requires lower temperatures for its direct reduction reaction and is a solidstate process at temperatures below the melting point of iron (1200 °C). Reduction gas (commonly a mixture of H2 and CO syngas) is typically made from either natural gas or coal.

This product is known as direct reduced iron (DRI) or sponge iron. Processes that produce iron by reduction of iron ore (in solid state) below the melting point are generally classified as DR ...
This study investigated the direct reduction process and phosphorus migration features of highphosphorus iron ores using simulated experiments. Results show that iron oxide was successfully reduced, and a FeSiAl slag formed in carbonbearing pellets at 1473 K (1200 °C). Fluorapatite then began to decompose into Ca3(PO4)2 and CaF2. As the reaction continued, Ca3(PO4)2 and FeSiAl slag ...
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. ...

Pellets/Lump ore t 3 HYL Direct Reduction Process HYL is a process designed for the direct reduction of iron ores by use of reducing H2 and CO gases. As presented in Figure 1 above, there are three process schemes available for producing: DRI: Cold DRI discharge is commonly used in an adjacent meltshop close to the DR facilities.
This process allows the direct utilization of fine iron ores and coal instead of sinter and coke. The fluidized bed reactor system is fed with iron ore fines of a particle size smaller than 8 × 10 −3 m ( Ahn et al ., 2010 ) and additives such as limestone or dolomite.
The sponge iron produced by direct reduction was melted and solidified. In the second stage, Hematite ore in the form of pellets was reduced using solid carbon in a furnace heated up to 1,100°C for 60 and 120 minutes. Reduction degree of process was evaluated as a function of time and the ratio of C fix /Fe total .
The coalbased direct reduction characteristics of lowgrade iron ore during lignite pyrolysis were investigated. Especially, the coal used as reducing agent contains a high percentage of volatile matter and a low percentage of fixed carbon, which could produce a large amount of H 2 and CO during pyrolysis at high temperature and improve the speed of reduction reaction.
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.
Direct reduction of iron is the chemical removal (reduction) of oxygen from iron ore in its solid form. The iron used in the steelmaking process is currently chemically reduced from iron ore through the use of fossil resources natural gas or coal. This process is known as Direct Reduced Ironmaking (DRI). Carbon combines with the oxygen in ...
The first process of the route is the production of hydrogen by water electrolysis using CO 2 lean electricity. The challenge is to achieve massive production of H 2 in acceptable economic conditions. The second process is the direct reduction of iron ore in a shaft furnace operated with hydrogen only.

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 ...
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).

COREX is a smelting reduction process owned by Primetals that produces iron directly from iron ore and noncoking coal (COREX®, 2020). This process combines a reduction shaft and melting gasifier, as shown in Fig. 4 a. The key difference between the BF and COREX processes is noncoking coal and the direct use of iron ore.
