Sponge iron affordable prices

Spongy iron results from the direct reduction of iron ore. In this process, oxygen is removed from the iron ore and the end product is porous in the form of spherical beads. The presence of these voids has led to this product being called sponge iron. You can find more information about the sponge iron on our website.

What is sponge iron used for?

Sponge iron is used as scrap iron in the smelting process. The uses of sponge iron in induction furnaces are much higher than in other smelting processes; With this method, with sufficient experience and knowledge, around 50% of the sponge iron can be processed with scrap iron. Other uses for sponge iron include making wrought iron or processed steel. In Iran, the use of sponge iron in induction furnaces began in 2010 at one of the factories in Yazd. At that time, of course, because the amount of scrap iron, although of, was very high; The need to use sponge iron did not seem necessary.

On the other hand, the first experiences with sponge iron applications were not very desirable; Not knowing the correct methods, the melting time was long and a terrible slag was obtained. Benefits of sponge iron Suitable alternative for scrap in steelworks High quality metalworking Less sulfur and phosphorus Contains fewer waste elements than scrap iron Can be used as an alternative coolant for scrap metal in and ovens. Faster than scrap iron The direct reduction process is cheaper than the blast furnace process.

The direct reduction process has fewer environmental restrictions than the blast furnace process. Higher quality than pig iron The use of the direct reduction method in small units is also economically justified. Easy transport and storage of sponge iron as hot-rolled iron ( It is possible to use natural gas without removing its impurities in the direct reduction method. Sponge iron has a higher density than scrap iron, so less iron is loaded into the furnace. The density of sponge iron in the form of lumps is 1.80 g / cm³ and in the form of soft 1.75 g / cm³ and its content is between 84 and 95%.
