2 is used to reduce iron ore pellets to "direct reduced iron" (DRI, or sponge iron). The reaction takes place in a shaft furnace, a type of furnace that uses gas reductants to make DRI. The operating temperature can be fairly low, around 800°C. The DRI is then fed into an EAF and turned into steel by further processing it and adding carbon.

The second stage process recovered 83.41% of iron with 67.07 mass% grade. Silica was reduced to 2.14 mass% and alumina to 1.30 mass%. Accordingly, phosphorus was also reduced to 0.02 mass%. Therefore, the two stage magnetic separation process was established using these results. Keywords: Sanje iron ore, magnetic separation, silica, alumina

Iron ore must go through a lengthy pre-processing stage before it can be pelletized – a series of steps that work to beneficiate and concentrate low-grade ores. This process varies depending on the ore source, but typically involves various stages of crushing and grinding to reduce the size of the iron ore.

The first stage is to produce pig iron from iron ore in a blast furnace. Alternatively, it may be directly reduced. The second is to make wrought iron or steel from pig iron by puddling process a further process.Commercially available iron is classified based on purity and the abundance of additives.

The Step-by-Step Process of Producing Iron from Iron Ore. Some 3000-4000 years ago, the ancient Egyptians derived iron from the fallen meteorites (or so they say), carved them and made tools and equipment besides jewelry. We have come a long way since then. Now, first of all, pure iron is rarely available (except if one or two meteorites crash).

At the processing plant, the taconite is crushed into very small pieces by rock crushing machines. The crushers keep crushing the rock until it is the size of a marble. The rock is mixed with water and ground in rotating mills until it is as fine as powder. Separation The iron ore is separated from the taconite using magnetism.

When the iron ore is extracted from the mine, it must undergo several processing stages. Six steps to process iron ore. 1. Screening. We recommend that you begin by screening the iron ore to separate fine particles below the crusher’s CSS before the crushing stage. A static screen is used to divert the fine particles for crushing.

This iron can also be used in steel production or purified further to give wrought iron. Waste gas mixture that exudes from the furnace contains majorly nitrogen, 30% carbon(II)oxide and about 10% carbon(IV)oxide. These waste gas mixture is used in pre-heating the air blast and the iron ore at the initial stages of the extraction process.
