Direct reduction of iron is the removal of oxygen from iron ore or other iron bearing materials in the solid state, i.e. without melting, as in the blast furnace. The reducing agents are carbon monoxide and hydrogen, coming from reformed natural gas, syngas or coal. …

Read more...The disintegration behavior and mechanism of iron ore pellet in simulated shaft furnace conditions were investigated in details. Effects of temperature, reducing gas and gangue compositions were emphatically discussed. It was found that pellet disintegrated acutely as reduced by H 2 /CO = 0.8 at 550 °C. Gangue minerals in pellet were proved to ...

For each reduction experiment, iron ore pellets were heated to the required temperature and then reduced for 60 min in reducing gases (listed in Table 2) at flow rate of 0.6 m 3 /h. Subsequently, the reduced samples were ...

Read more...However, lump ore can cause challenges in the shaft furnace and material handling system. Therefore, pelletized ore currently is the primary feedstock for shaft furnace direct reduction operations around the world. Iron ore specifications for direct reduction use should be determined by the overall economics of the DR plant and the associated ...

The reaction takes place in a shaft furnace, a type of furnace that uses gas reductants to make DRI. The operating temperature can be fairly low, around 800°C.

Read more...Abstract The disintegration behavior and mechanism of iron ore pellet in simulated shaft furnace conditions were investigated in details. Effects of temperature, reducing gas and gangue compositions were emphatically discussed. It was found that pellet disintegrated acutely as reduced by H2/CO = 0.8 at 550 °C. Gangue minerals in pellet were proved to ease the disintegration in various degrees.
