Direct Reduced Iron: Most Efficient Technologies for Greenhouse ...
The employed fuels are natural gas and/or coal. The energy consumption is in the order of GJ/tDRI that is equivalent to 300 m 3 of natural gas per ton of reduced iron. The CO 2 emissions are quantified in the range t of CO 2 per ton of steel. As a function of the employed reducing reactors, the systems are of four main types:
