KruppCodir Process: Codir stands for coal, ore direct reduction. It is very similar to KruppRenn process but operates comparatively at a much lower temperature. Here limestone or dolomites are charged into the kiln. The first Codir plant started its operation in 1973 in South Africa.
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 ...

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.

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.

In a typical direct reduction process, coal and natural gas are used as alternative fuels to replace metallurgical coke. However, there is no fundamental improvement in the environmental pollution control for the direct reduction technology, especially concerning the carbon emissions, compared to the traditional ironmaking technology [1], [2], [3].
As a renewable, carbonneutral raw material, the application of biomass in steel production is conducive to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and achieving green and sustainable development in the steel industry. The heating and reduction process of a rotary hearth furnace was simulated under laboratory conditions to roast and reduce biochar carbonbearing pellets with coke powder and ...
Background In 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.
The reduction process takes place in the reduction tower. A tower is the heart of the plant. The direct reduction process is a complex process, which, explained in simple terms, consists of the following steps: Raw material iron ore pellets: Iron ore pellets the raw material are fed into the reactor; Natural gas is converted into ...
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 ...
Recent Achievements in Conventional Coal Gasification Processes. Stroud(General Rapporteur), in Oils and Gases from Coal, 1980 Reducing Gases. There are three ways in which gases can be used in ironmaking. They can be injected into the tuyeres and boshes of blast furnaces to obviate the use of oil or natural gas or used for direct ore reduction.
The direct reduction demonstration plant enables us to optimize the reduction process and how it interacts with the other process steps.

DR processes reduce iron ore in its solid state by the use of either natural gas or coal as reducing agents, and they have a comparative advantage of low capital costs, low emissions and production flexibility over the BF process. © 2019 The Authors.
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.
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 COREX process is a twostage direct smelting process, consisting of (1) a meltergasifier, which melts the DRI and gasifies the coal (Zhou et al. 2018), and (2) a DRI shaft furnace mounted above meltergasifier (You et al. 2018), which reduces lump ore or pellets to DRI by reducing gas from the meltergasifier (Fig. ).
For these reasons, the DRIprocess was developed, but in terms of productivity it still stands far behind the blast furnace process. Figure: Shaft furnace for the direct reduced iron process. The heart of the direct reduction is the shaft furnace, which is filled from the top with lump ore and pellets. Carbon monoxide and hydrogen are used to ...

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.
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).
