There are two types of iron resources such as primary iron ore and iron sand. In general, primary iron ores use as raw materials in iron and steel making and can reduce directly. In Direct reduction process, Fe2O3 (hematite) is converted to metallic iron by the removal of oxygen. This work presents a heat transfer rate study for direct reduction process of iron ore cylindrical briquette. An investigation has been carried out of different reduction parameter such as different sizes cylindrical geometry over temperatures ranging from 700°C to 1100°C for reaction time from 10 minutes to 1 hour. The result was indicated that the value of the heat transfer rate decreases in the core and outer parts of the cylinder briquettes.

Summarized the development situation of rotary hearth furnace (RHF) direct reduction technology, ore resource allocation situation and direct reduction iron demand. The survey results show that: China's iron ore resource allocation heavily rely on imported iron ore, gas-based direct reduction process (MIDREX, HYL-III, FINMET) is not likely to be the mainly direct reduced iron (DRI) process in China. However, non coking coal resources is very rich in China, research and development of coal-based direct reduction process (such as FASTMET and ITMK3 process) has important practical significance, it can strengthen the comprehensive utilization on low grade iron ore, associated mineral resources and iron & steel plant dust and sludge. It has great significance to alleviate steel scrap demand and stable development of the iron and steel industry and protect the national economic security in China.

It is very important for a multilayer pellet bed to have a proper description of the radiant heat transfer and direct reduction process in the rotary hearth furnace. Ellipsoidal pellets may also be used in industrial production. The research on this ellipsoidal pellet bed will provide comprehensive data support for the production process. Besides, the view factor is one of the important factors affecting the heat transfer of the multilayer pellet bed. It is of great significance to study its value and distribution. In this study, the effects of the gas field and the bottom of the furnace on the direct reduction of multilayer ellipsoidal pellets were considered. The local environmental viewing angle coefficient in the model was obtained through the mechanism calculation method, which is more accurate than the calculation through the radiation exchange network. Furthermore, the porosity variation in the pellet during the direct reduction process was also considered. According to the calculation, it was found that the higher initial temperature at the furnace bottom is beneficial to increase the degree of metallization (DOM) and zinc removal rate (ZRR) for all pellets, and is more advantageous to the lower pellets in the material bed. Nevertheless, the reduction degree of the lower pellets is still smaller than that of the upper pellets. The results also show that increasing the offset ξ has a greater effect on increasing the ambient view factor and each position reduction degree in the ellipsoidal pellets layer. Results can be applied for the optimization of pellets distribution in a rotary hearth furnace.

The steel industry is known to have one of the highest environmental impacts on the industrial sector, especially in terms of CO2 emissions. The so-called direct reduction route, which makes use of reformed natural gas along with top gas recycling to reduce iron oxide pellets with H2 and CO, is responsible for lower CO2 emissions than the classic blast furnace route and is currently under development. The present article focuses on the direct reduction process and discusses means to further decrease the CO2 emission rate. A set of 10 operating parameters were simultaneously changed according to computer-aided optimization. The results provide about 15% improvement over original emissions for comparable output values.
