<p>A process for reducing iron ore particles in a moving bed reduction reactor comprising an upper reduction zone and a lower discharge zone, wherein coke oven gas, preferably forming all the make-up for the reducing gas circulating through and reacting in the reduction zone, is first fed to the discharge (and, optionally, cooling) zone and thereafter, conditioned by the DRI in the lower zone, is withdrawn from the reactor and transferred externally into the recycle reducing gas for injection into the reduction zone; with the heavy hydrocarbons and other components of coke oven gas which cause fouling, corrosion, or deposits in the direct reduction plant being removed from coke oven gas by catalytic and/or adsorptive action of the DRI in the lower zone; preferably the gas flow rate of the coke oven gas and the externally transferred gas differs between about 100 and 200 NCM per ton of DRI produced.</p> |
