WhatsApp: +86 18037808511Background 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.
WhatsApp: +86 18037808511Abstract A mathematical model of direct reduction in an iron orecoal char composite pellet is presented. The model incorporates heat transfer, devolatilisation, pellet size change, and three reduction steps (hematite to magnetite, magnetite to wustite, wustite to iron) as well as carbon consumption during the reduction. The model predictions are in good agreement with experimental data. The ...
