The two basic alternatives are direct reduction and smelting reduction process The main advantages of those proces ses with respect to the pig iron production are lower in vestment costs and the use of lump iron ore fine iron ore pellets and coal as raw material without the need for prior preparation The reduction gas is provided by large amount of heat needed for the process magnetite ore has a low iron content and must be upgraded to make it suitable for steelmaking In the last screening/handling step undersized or broken pellets are recycled Direct Reduction direct reduced iron DRI Direct reduction is the name of a broad group of processes

May 20 32 The Basic Mechanics The smelting or reduction of iron ore is a thermochemical reaction wherein the iron oxides are reduced to metallic iron Impurities in the ore are melted out of the ore in the form of slags most commonly iron silicates while the iron itself is never truly moltenDec 12 32 The biggest advantage of the process to iron makers is the fact that it produces hot metal without the need for coke ovens and sinter plants The direct use of low value grades of iron ore fines without pre treatment increases the flexibility of raw material supply for steel producers ensuring greater competitiveness

Direct reduction iron DRI furnaces are used to produce iron from iron ore oxides using natural gas The furnace takes the iron ore in the form of spherical pellets and a mixture of hydrogen and In modern copper smelting a reverberatory furnace is used Concentrated ore and a flux commonly limestone are charged into the top and molten matte—a compound of copper iron and sulfur—and slag are drawn out at the bottom A second heat treatment in another converter furnace is necessary to remove the iron from the matte

A direct smelting process and a fixed ie non rotatable metallurgical vessel for producing metal from a metalliferous feed material is disclosed The process is a molten bath based process which includes injecting solid feed materials with a carrier gas into the molten bath via one or more downwardly extending lance/tuyere 11 and causing gas flow from the molten bath at a flow rate of The process principles are the basis for numerous rotary kiln plants and still represent the dominant technology for the direct reduction of lump ore or pellets using coal Operates with the widest range of iron bearing materials such as pellets lump ore beach sand ilmenite and also iron ore

Dec 22 32 Direct iron smelting reduction processes have been developed as an alternative to the blast furnace process for making molten slag free iron The main incentive behind their development was to produce smaller quantities of hot metal from iron oxide feed stocks preferably low grade ore and/or without pelletization utilizing noncoking coal as a reducing carburizing agentThe present invention is a process for smelting ferrosilicon alloy The process comprises adding a carbon source and tailings comprising oxides of silicon and iron to a substantially closed furnace Heat is supplied to the furnace by striking a direct current arc between a cathode electrode and an

To get to the bits of iron in the ore you have to smelt it out Smelting involves heating up ore until the metal becomes spongy and the chemical compounds in the ore begin to break down Most important it releases oxygen from the iron ore which makes up a high percentage of common iron orIt s a process But Smelting and Carbon Iron ores consists of oxygen and iron atoms bonded together into molecul To convert it to metallic iron it must be smelted or sent through a direct
