USE OF ORGANIC MATERIAL BRIQUETTES IN DIRECT REDUCTION PROCESS IN ACEROS AREQUIPA CORP. PERU

摘要

Aceros Arequipa is a steel mill complex located in the city of Pisco, Peru. From 2010, we are recovering organic material (plastics, rubber, wood, etc.) of our scrap shredder wastes to use as alternative fuel in the direct reduction process that use rotary kilns in the production of sponge iron (DRI). The DRI produced is subsequently charged to the electric arc furnace (EAF).
