| Hot Briquetted Sponge Iron (HBI) |
| Direct Reduced Iron (DRI) is
produced in two forms: Hot Briquetted Iron (HBI),
and Hot Direct Reduced Iron (HDRI). The HDRI system
is an Essar innovation that saves approximately
120 kWh/ton of HDRI consumed by the EAF, thus, utilizing
the 650 degree celsius heat contained in the HDRI.
Domestic and imported iron oxides are utilized to
produce high quality HBI/HDRI of 93% plus total
iron with metallic iron content of 86% plus. Essar
typically produces 1.8% to 2.0% carbon which is
primarily Fe3C - the form required by
the EAF shop. |
