WhatsApp: +86 18203695377Coal 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.

WhatsApp: +86 18203695377While 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.
