2022-3-31 The shaft furnace is where iron ore is converted to metallic. Iron oxide, in pellet or lump form, is introduced through a proportioning hopper at the top of the shaft furnace. As the iron ore descends through the furnace by gravity flow, it is heated, and the oxygen is removed from the iron ore (reduction) by counterflowing gases that have a
ContactThe MIDREX® shaft furnace is designed to operate with a combination of pellets and lump ores virtually in any proportion. This allows the plant operator to maximize productivity at the lowest cost. MIDREX® plants are reported to have processed iron oxide pellets and lump ores from over 50 sources around the world.
