Hot sponge iron briquettes
HOT BRIQUETTED IRON
Sponge iron is obtained from the direct reduction of iron oxide. In the MIDREX® DRI TECHNOLOGY method, iron ore lumps are regenerated in a vertical furnace with a stream of methane gas, which is broken into carbon monoxide and hydrogen in the reformer with the help of a catalyst at a temperature of about 900 degrees Celsius and into iron with a purity of about 85%. Becomes. Sponge iron is produced and consumed in three forms: cold, hot and hot briquettes

Cold sponge iron (CDRI) is a product that is produced in many direct recovery units in the world, but due to its low wear resistance and poor mechanical properties, the transportation and storage process of this product has always been associated with problems that It causes significant overhead costs and a drop in the economic value of the product. In order to prevent damages caused by transporting CDRI and improve its steelmaking performance in the downstream loop, Cold Briquetted Iron & Carbon (CBIC) product was invented by the researchers of the country’s iron and steel industry.
