The scope for the adoption of these technologies depends on how steel is produced. There are two basic production routes: the Blast Furnace (BF) route, where coke is the primary fuel, and the Direct Reduced Iron (DRI) route, where the fuel can be coal or natural presently produces around 90% of crude steel through the BF and coal based DRI routes (with an approximately equal share ...
ArcelorMittal's plans for more coalbased steelmaking in India contrasts markedly with its developments in Europe and Canada, where the company is planning a transition away from blast furnaces to direct reduced iron (DRI)based steelmaking using green hydrogen under its 'Innovative DRI' decarbonisation pathway. In October 2022 ...
It is widely understood that manmade climate change is chiefly caused by greenhouse gas emissions, especially carbon dioxide (CO 2 ), and that the consequences of global warming will be profound, widespread, and destructive. 1 Nonetheless, global emissions have risen more or less continuously for the past 25 years and have increased each of the...
Another way to make primary steel is through what is termed Direct Reduced Iron (DRI), when iron ore is mixed with a fuel and a reductant to reduce the oxygen content. ... Worldwide, natural gas is the fuel typically used while in India 82% of DRI is produced in coalbased rotary kilns with the remainder being produced via gasbased routes ...
Scrapbased EAF operations present the most CO 2 friendly route (Figure 3) even when including electricity contributions (assuming 65 kg CO 2 /Te DRI and about a 15% scrap charge in the BOF). However, the beneficial continuous recycling in the EAF will render prime scrap sources fewandfarbetween long term (Figure 4), necessitating greater use of Ore Based Metallics (OBMs DRI/HBI and Pig ...
At present, fossil fuels are the steel sector's bloodstream: 27 EJ (10 18 J) of coal, 3 EJ of gas and 5 EJ (1400 TWh) of electricity are consumed annually for the production of the mostly widely ...
Increase use of gases in coal based route DRI production There is a need to substitute part of coal by bio gas/ syn gas/ natural gas/green hydrogen in the existing coal based DRI route to save about 40 MTPA installed capacity which has been set up with huge investment, provide large number of direct and indirect employment and plays very
Hydrogenbased DRI was produced at a commercial scale in Trinidad and Tobago using a fluidized bed reactor process as long ago as the early 2000s. Now the process needs to be finetuned and accompanied by a truly fossilfree energy source.
An established alternative to coal and cokebased reduction of iron ores in blast furnaces is the ore reduction by coal or reformed natural gas (CO, H2) to direct reduced iron (DRI) or hot ...
Of total DRI the production in 2008, 74 percent was produced from coal and 26 percent from natural gas. India is now the world's largest producer of DRI. Currently, there are two primary means of DRI production in India: smallscale rotary kilns using coal and iron ore lump, and largelocal scale shaft furnace plants using
Direct Reduced Iron (DRI) manufacturing, a growing technology in ironmaking, offers the potential to reduce emissions. India, as the largest manufacturer of DRI, is characterized by technological diversity, while simultaneously dominated by coalbased DRI processes.
The remaining 18 % of direct reduced iron is produced through coalbased reducing agents in rotary kilns (ACCAR, DRC and Krupp Rein processes) or rotary hearth furnaces (Fastmet process) [29]. ... Given the long period obtained for the hydrogenbased DRI technologies to be profitable, the possibility of using HDRI in blast furnaces (Fig. 5) ...
and since the inception of first DRI plant in 1957 in Mexico, there has been a continuous growth of this industry in last three decades. This is evident from the steep rise in world DRI production during the past three decades. India, entered the sponge iron industry only in 1980, when the coal based DRI plant of Sponge Iron India Limited (SIIL)
Coal based DRI plants are flexible with respect to plant location since noncoking coal is widely distributed in large deposits and is easy to transport. Most plants employ reduction process which is carried out in rotary kilns. These plants use wide variety of raw materials and noncoking coal.
Direct Reduced Iron Industry in India — Problems and Prospects Ramachandra Rao Consultant (Mineral Processing, Iron Steel Technology and Engineering) Abstract India is the largest producer of Direct Reduced Iron in the world with annual capacity of nearly 10 Mt comprising coal and gas based DRI plants. India has the largest coal based DRI
The decarbonization pathways projected by this study revealed that coalbased DRI production had a lower carbon abatement cost than gasbased DRI production and can account for 45% of the iron and steel's total carbon reduction under the HCN scenario. Therefore, China could adapt its resource endowment, taking coal as the foundation of ...
Comparative LCA of coal kiln, coal gasifier and NG reformer based DRI processes. • GHG intensity (tCO 2 e/tDRI): rotary kiln ; coal gasifier ; NG reformer • For the base cases, NGbased DRI has ∼3341% lower GHG footprint than coalbased DRI. Abstract
Over the past two years, nearly all European flatsteel players have announced the gradual replacement of their cokingcoalbased blast furnaces (BFs) with directreducediron (DRI) plants to decarbonize their steel more than 16 DRI plants currently announced represent more than 25 million metric tons 1 Metric tons: one metric ton = 2,205 pounds. of capacity (Exhibit 1).
well over half of the global DRI. From, worldwide DRI output increased by Mt, or nearly 49%, primarily driven by the increase in coalbased DRI in India, the high capacity utilization of existing and new gasbased plants in , and the ramp up of new capacity, such as Tosyali Holding's MIDREX® Plant in Algeria.
Coal plays a dual role in the Kiln. Part of coal is used as fuel to supply the desired heat so as to take the raw materials to the desired temp. But main role of coal is to supply carbon in the reduction process. Dolomite is used as sulphur scavenger which finally comes out with the char. Char contains ash of coal and other impurities of iron ore.
Based on our analysis, we expect India's steel sector decarbonisation trajectory until 2070 to be the following: Up to 2030: The sector is likely to see a reduction in the share of coalbased technologies,, BF/BOF and coalbased EAF/Electric Induction Furnace (EIF) route from 92% in 2021 to 70% by 2030.
A coalbased dual fuel DRI process (FASTMET) shows lower gross CO 2 emission ( t CO 2 /t DRI) compared to rotary kiln (RK) process ( t CO 2 /t DRI)) without electricity rebate. In RHF, coal is used as a reductant, and hydrogenrich or carbon lean natural gas is used as the heat producer. The coal used is substantially lower (400 kg/t ...
Direct reduced iron to electric arc furnace (DRIEAF) production is 5% and growing, it appears to have better decarbonization potential to move towards netzero.

The DRI technology includes the coalbased DRI reduction and gasbased DRI reduction process. The application of hydrogen metallurgy in DRI process mainly focuses on the gasbased DRI process, which accounts for more than 90% of the total annual output of DRI at present.
In coalbased DRI plants rotary kiln is used for the reduction of iron ore. Accretion rings formations inside the kiln adversely affect the performance of plant in terms of low production and inferior quality, which frequently lead to shut down. About 70% of the coalbased DRI rotatory kiln shut down is due to the accretion formation [ 1 ].
