Get PriceThe iron ore fines pass in a downward direction through four reactors where they are heated and reduced to DRI by means of a reduction gas—derived from the gasification of the coal—that flows in the counter current direction to the ore From Treatise on Process Metallurgy Industrial Processes 2024 Download as PDF About this page
Get PriceThe iron by its own is usually found in the structure of magnetite Fe 3 O 4 hematite Fe 2 O 3 goethite limonite or siderite Hematite is also identified as natural ore The nomenclature dates back to the early years of drawing out when certain hematite ores comprised 66% iron and could be fed reliably into iron edifice blast furnaces
Get PriceIron ores are rocks and minerals from which metallic iron can be extracted There are four main types of iron ore deposit massive hematite which is the most commonly mined magnetite titanomagnetite and pisolitic ironstone These ores vary in colour from dark grey bright yellow or deep purple to rusty red
Get PriceIron oxide which is also called ferric oxide is an inorganic compound having the chemical formula Fe2O3 It is one of the 3 major oxides of iron and the remaining two being iron II oxide FeO which is the rare iron II and III oxide Fe3O4 and also naturally takes place as the mineral magnetite
Get PriceThe ore has high iron content typically between 56% and 64% Fe Magnetite has higher iron content than hematite But hematite ore usually contains large concentrations of hematite magnetite ore low concentrations of magnetite The ore has lower iron content typically between 25% and 40% Fe
Get PriceThe iron ore itself is not pure ore It is also contaminated with a variety of rock which will not necessarily melt at blast furnace temperatures and therefore could clog it up For this reason limestone or calcium carbonate is added to the initial furnace charge The hot furnace reacts with the limestone to give calcium oxide
