Coal based Direct Reduction Rotary Kiln Process – IspatGuru

The metallic iron in this process is produced by the reduction of iron oxide below the fusion temperature of iron ore (1535 deg C) by utilizing carbonaceous material present in the non-coking coal. As the iron ore is in direct contact with the reducing agent throughout the reduction process, it is often termed as direct reduced iron (DRI).

Highly Efficient Beneficiation of Low-Grade Iron Ore via Ore…

Direct reduction of low-grade iron ore pelleted with coal was investigated using a pilot-scale rotary kiln. The evolution of the iron minerals, the strength of the pellets, and the emission characteristics were measured. The results showed that the rotary kiln could be divided into three major functional zones: reduction of hematite to wüstite occurred at 1023–1163 K; …
