Get PriceApr 11, 2014· US Iron ore. The US Iron ore division is primarily involved in the sale of iron ore pellets which are used in blast furnaces as part of the steel making process. Various grades of iron ore pellets are delivered to customers based on their preferences, which in turn depends on the characteristics of their blast furnaces.
Get PriceAccording to the chemical composition and iron grade, mineral ore influences the energy requirements of blast furnaces used for the production of pig iron. The amount of slag is affected by the iron content (and gangue composition) and the amount of lime and limestone necessary to achieve adequate slag basicity.
Get PriceSesa Goa Iron Ore also has a 60 MW power plant that produces clean power by using the waste heat recovery from its coke ovens and blast furnace gas. In 2007, it became a majorityowned subsidiary of Vedanta Resources Plc., when Vedanta acquired 51% controlling stake from Mitsui Co., Ltd.
Get PriceOct 29, 2019· Answering Mining's Big Questions. The Ohiobased miner is the eighth coal company to go under over the past year as demand for the fossil fuel continues to diminish.
Get PriceThe Process. Iron oxides can come to the blast furnace plant in the form of raw ore, pellets or sinter. The raw ore is removed from the earth and sized into pieces that range from to inches. This ore is either Hematite (Fe2O3) or Magnetite (Fe3O4) and the iron content ranges from 50% to 70%.

Get PriceREQUIRED METALLURGICAL PROPERTIES key pellet metallurgical properties are reducibility, sticking tendency, and metallization sticking of pellets minimized by additives, such as limestone or dolomite in pelletizing, or oxide coatings after the pelletizing process.
Get PriceLimestone (calcium carbonate) is added to the iron ore which reacts with the silica to form molten calcium silicate in the blast furnace. The calcium silicate (called slag) floats on the liquid iron. Since iron is below carbon in the reactivity series, iron in the ore is reduced to iron metal by heating with carbon (coke). It is actually carbon monoxide which does the reducing in the blast furnace.

Get PriceSep 04, 2012· The following process takes place inside the blast furnace: Coke is added to haematite as it acts as a reducing agent for iron(III) oxide. Carbon, which comes into contact with haematite, reduces some of the iron(III) oxide. Reduction of iron(III) oxide: iron(III) oxide + carbon > iron + carbon dioxide 2 Fe2CO3 (s) + 3 C (s) > 4 Fe (l) + 3 CO2 (g)
Get PriceIn practice, iron ore often contains a few percent SiO. 2, even after repeated magnetic or hydraulic separation, due to the presence of locked siliceous gangue minerals. To further upgrade the concentrate, froth flotation has been established as an efficient method to remove impurities from iron ore in half a century's practice around the world.
