Abstract: | An experimental study was conducted to quantify the rate of direct reduced iron (DRI) decarburization in a steelmaking slag
using the constant volume pressure increase technique. Experiments were conducted by dropping DRI pellets into molten slag
at temperatures from 1773 K to 1873 K (1500 °C to 1600 °C). Subsequent experiments were carried out in which the DRI pellets
were preheated while the slag temperature remained constant. The effect of the initial carbon content and the preheating temperature
of the DRI on the reaction rate was investigated. The decarburization of DRI seems to comprise two stages, a reaction between
the FeO and DRI followed by decarburization through the iron oxide of slag. Carbon has a significant effect on the kinetics
of both stages, whereas the preheating temperature mainly influences the rate of decarburization between FeO and carbon inside
the pellet. |
