— Iron ore first undergoes a solid-state reduction in a pre-reduction unit. The resulting product at this stage – similar to DRI – is then smelted and further reduced in the smelting reduction vessel where coal is gasified, producing heat and CO-rich hot gas that can be further oxidized to generate additional heat to smelt the iron.
Iron ore containing titanium and vanadium could be reduced significantly in the solid state with methane-hydrogen mixture up to 400 °C lower than is needed in ordinary solid state carbothermic process. The reduction of chromite and manganese ores were possible similarly at lower temperatures with potential energy savings lower carbon footprint.
