Conclusions
Tar decomposition over porous iron ore and steelmaking slag increased carbon
content that could be used as reduction agent. Tar carbon infiltrated and
deposited effectively within nanopores which was formed during the
dehydration of combined water.
Tar component which was produced by biomass pyrolysis was promising
candidate as reducing agent in the ironmaking industry.
Simultaneously with tar decomposition and carbon deposition, indirect
reduction of Fe2O3 was occurred and changed to Fe3O4 completely by
pyrolysis gases.
The nanoscale contact between the iron ore and carbon enhanced the
contacting area and resulted in the increase in the reaction rate.
These results appealed an innovative method for reducing the conventional
reduction agent, utilization of renewable and low grade material and decrease
energy consumption in the ironmaking process
