Sponge Iron
Some of these advantages of during steel making process:
- More reduction of Feo and send back Fe from Slag phase to melting Phase
|
- Oxygen remained from injection is negligible (not suitable for casting)
|
- Pasty Slag will generate without any graphite injection
|
- Coke addition requirement will decrease sharply. This cause to save around 5.6 USD per kg Coke.
|
- With high carbon content of sponge iron – DRI , decreasing the cost of melt production is visible from 1%to 2.5 %, 10 US Dollar per ton.
|
- With high carbon content of (up to 2.5 %), it will cause significant decrease in energy consumption (up to 300KW/ton)

Generally, Iran`s total sponge iron production is in class B. DRI class B can be shipped to distant destinations in containerized jumbo-bags without any hazards and necessary precautions. But for bulk shipment of DRI , there is some conservation based on IMSBC Codes. So, we have a professional expert group who were trained for ensure of safe carriage of bulk cargoes.
