Dolomite formed more quickly, approached stoichiometry more rapidly, and became betterordered in less time in samples prepared with Fe+2 and a 1:1 Mg+2/Ca+2 ratio relative to experiments with Fe+3 and a 1:2 Mg+2/Ca+2 ratio. Results suggest that dolomite formed initially by precipitation from solution onto a calcite substrate. Introduction

Direct Reduced Iron (DRI): This iron production process directly reduces iron ore in solidstate with the reaction temperature below the melting point of iron. Reducing gases are produced from natural gas (gasbased DRI) or coal (coalbased DRI) called syngas, a mixture of H2 and CO.

The various advantages of iron ore pellets are given below. Iron ore pellet is a kind of agglomerated fines which has better tumbling index when compared with the iron ore and it can be used as a substitute for the iron ore lumps both in the BF and for DRI production. Pellets have good reducibility since they have high porosity (25 % to 30 %).

In the integrated steelmaking route, iron ore containing ferrous oxides is converted to metallic iron inside the blast furnace via a chemical process called 'reduction'. Coal in the form of metallurgical coal and pulverised coal act as the active agents or 'reductants' that strip away oxygen from the iron ore to yield metallic iron ...

Abstract Iron ore, pellets, and sinter were reduced with hydrogen at 800 °C to understand the degree of reduction and the mineralogical aspects. The weight loss of goethite and limonite iron ore was noticed to be lower than that of magnetite and hematite varieties. Xray diffractometry (XRD) indicated 100 pct Fe in the case of hematite, 93 pct in magnetite, 53 pct in goethite, and as low as ...

Direct Reduction. Direct reduced iron is iron ore in the form of lumps, fines or pellets that have had the oxygen removed by using hydrogen and carbon monoxide. Typical sources of carbon monoxide are natural gas, coal gas, and coal. Other energy inputs into the production process often include oil and electricity.

Since DRI has become competitive with steel scrap, the gangue content of the DRI has to be reduced appreciably. The iron ore feeds for the DR processes normally contain less than 2 % silica and 1 % alumina. Moreover, certain additions of either limestone or dolomite are made to improve the behaviour of the iron ore pellets during reduction.

In India however, as noted above, because less scrap vis a vis iron ore and coal are used, steel produced using the DRI method is more carbonintensive (discussed below). It is also important to note that the steels produced through the IF route have less load bearing properties and so cannot be used in certain instances [ 1, 6 ] (see Fig. 3 ).

Initially, the iron ore is pretreated in a pellet or sinter plant where limestone and dolomite are added to the mixture that is known as the burden. The burden, which contains Fe 2 O 3 and Fe 3 O 4 together with the additives, is fed into the blast furnace where the iron is reduced and melted.
