IP & E APPLICATION
DIRECT REDUCTION IRON ( DRI )
Accurate gas measurements ensure DRI plants can operate at the highest levels of efficiency , while achieving low emissions targets .
The Midrex DRI process is a low-carbon-dioxide-emission application in steelmaking using virgin iron ore in an electric arc furnace . The iron ore is heated as it descends through a shaft furnace , and oxygen ( O 2 ) is removed from the ore using counterflowing gases with a high hydrogen and carbon monoxide content . This process requires accurate gas monitoring for efficient operation .
Emissions monitoring is also important , as the reaction between the counterflow gases and iron oxide in the ore produces metallic iron , water vapor , and carbon dioxide ( CO 2 ). The process may generate oxides of nitrogen ( NOx ) which must be continuously monitored to ensure environmental compliance .
