Direct Reduction of Iron Ore | JOM

In the search for a pure, available iron source, steelmakers are focusing their attention on Directly Reduced Iron (DRI). This material is produced by the reaction of a low gangue iron ore with a hydrocarbonaceous substance. Commercially, DRI is generated in four different reactors: shaft (moving-bed), rotary kiln, fluidized bed, and retort (fixed …

Direct reduction of iron to facilitate net zero emissions in …

The global annual production of steel is approximately 2 billion tons, accounting for 8 % of the world's energy demand and 7 % of carbon dioxide (CO 2) emissions in the energy sector. Coal-based direct reduced iron (DRI) reduces CO 2 emissions by 38 % compared with traditional blast furnace–basic oxygen furnace (BF …

Midrex Direct reduction plants

Italian steel technology provider Tenova is developing new technology to produce direct reduced iron using lower-quality blast furnace-grade pellets. The technology combination involves a new DRI melting …

Direct Reduced Iron: The New Age of HBI

With the development of renewable energy infrastructures, combined with ironmaking technologies that anticipate low-carbon and carbon-neutral iron and steel production, Midrex Technologies and Primetals Technologies are paving the way for the new age of HBI. Midrex hbi plant: corpus christi, texas, U.S.A. VP of Direct Reduction …

Investigations on the Interaction Behavior between …

Direct reduction (DR) with natural gas as the reducing agent, already an industrially applied technology, is such an alternative. Consequently, the melting behavior of its intermediate product, i.e., direct reduced iron (DRI), in either an electric arc furnace (EAF) or a submerged arc furnace (SAF), is of great interest.

The perspective of hydrogen direct reduction of iron

The work proposes a perspective on the direct reduction of iron (DRI) using hydrogen. Typically, iron is produced in blast furnaces (BFI) by the reduction of iron ore with carbon-rich materials such as coal or coke. Greenhouse emissions may be drastically reduced by introducing DRI coal/oil-based, and further reduced by using methane …

Direct Reduction of Iron (DRI) | Reformer Tubes

MetalTek is North America's leading supplier of centrifugally cast reformer tubes for the direct reduction of iron (DRI). DRI is the process of producing metallic iron by removing oxygen from iron ore without melting. During DRI reformer tubes produce hydrogen, which reacts with the iron ore inside a heated furnace and removes the oxygen. The process …

MIDREX® — THE LEADING DRI PRODUCTION PROCESS

MIDREX is an innovative ironmaking process that has been specifically developed to produce direct – reduced iron from iron ores and natural gas/hydrogen. MIDREX is a gas-based shaft furnace process that converts iron oxides – in the form of pellets or lump ore – into direct-reduced iron (DRI).

Cost and Life Cycle Analysis for Deep CO

Technologies that produce direct reduced iron (DRI) enable the industry to reduce emissions or even approach net-zero CO 2 emissions for steel production. Herein, comprehensive cradle-to-gate (CTG) life cycle analysis (LCA) and techno-economic analysis (TEA) are used to evaluate the CO 2 emissions of three DRI technologies.

Thermodynamic analysis and experimental verification of the direct …

Hydrogen-based direct reducing iron production (H-DRI) possesses great potential for energy saving and emission reduction of greenhouse gas in metallurgical industries. Although the relevant research has been studied since long, the thermodynamics and process of reduction by pure H2 in a broad temperature range are not well …

Fine Ore Direct Reduction Circored

The Outotec CircoredTM process is a hydrogen-based process for direct reduction of iron ore fines. The flexible process, which produces highly metalized direct reduced iron (DRI) or hot briquetted iron (HBI) that can be fed directly to an electric arc furnace, has proven its functionality and performance in an industrial-scale …
