Currently, DRI is mainly produced using natural gas (approximately 76%), while the rest is made from coalbased rotary kilns (MIDREX, 2020; DRI production, 2022). Access to lowcost renewable hydrogen will allow many countries to produce steel using the hydrogenbased DRI (H 2 DRI), which is anticipated to be about 15% by 2050 ( Iron and Steel ...

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]. Lit

DRI processes can reduce CO 2 emissions by using natural gas instead of coal due to the replacement of carbon reductant by hydrogen from the methane. Many complementary gasification processes have been developed in order to synthesize the reducing atmospheres.

Rotary kiln coalbased DR plants, based on single module, are designed for up to a maximum of M tonnes per year (million tpy) of DRI, requiring high capital cost for larger capacities. When using ore fines and coal, gangue and sulfur stemming from coal is normally reflected in higher transformation costs in the steelmaking step.

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.

What is hydrogenbased reduction? Direct reduction of iron is the chemical removal (reduction) of oxygen from iron ore in its solid form. The iron used in the steelmaking process is currently chemically reduced from iron ore through the use of fossil resources natural gas or coal. This process is known as Direct Reduced Ironmaking (DRI).

Direct reduced iron (DRI) is the product which is produced by the direct reduction of iron ore or other iron bearing materials in the solid state by using noncoking coal or natural gas. Processes which produce DRI by reduction of iron ore below the melting point of the iron are normally known as the direct reduction (DR) processes.

Product Characteristics DRI can be produced in powder, pellet, lump, or briquette form. The powder, pellets, and lumps retain the shape of the iron oxide material fed into the DR process. The removal of oxygen leaves voids, giving the DRI a spongy appearance when viewed through a microscope.

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...

Sponge iron produced using the non coking coal is called coal based sponge iron / DRI. For producing the sponge iron through this process requires high grade of iron ore and non coking coal. Gas Based DRI / HBI. In this process route, iron oxides are converted to the DRI / HBI by using natural gas in a vertical shaft furnace. For steel ...

Although 84Mt is only around 5% of global steelmaking capacity, more than 70% of global capacity will reach a reinvestment decision prior to 2030. As such, it can be expected that the pipeline of noncoalbased DRI steelmaking projects will increase much further while CCUS is left behind again, just as it was in the power sector by wind and solar.

While coalbased DRIEAF is common in India, a majority of DRIEAF steelmaking entails the reforming of natural gas to generate a mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen—the first step toward producing gray or blue hydrogen. Both carbon monoxide and hydrogen are used to reduce iron ore in a furnace, which then yields solid iron, steam, and CO₂.
