From Ore to Iron with Smelting and Direct Iron Reduction

In the smelting reduction process, pelletized iron oxide ore or fine ore powders are pre-reduced in a fluidized bed or reduction shaft. The reduced iron along with coal and lime is fed to a gasifier-melter, which completes the reduction process and produces pig iron or hot metal of the same quality as a blast furnace. The reducing …
