What is Corex plant?

What is Corex plant?

Corex is a smelting reduction process combining a melter gasifier with a reduction shaft. The process takes lump iron ore or pellets, non-coking coal, and oxygen as main inputs. Similar to the blast furnace process, the reduction gas moves in counter flow to the descending burden in the reduction shaft.

What is the difference between Corex and blast furnace?

The main difference between the Corex and the blast furnace are that the Corex uses coal rather than coke, cold oxygen rather than heated blast air and that the Corex separates the melting and solid-state reduction processes between two different reactors.

What is Corex slag?

This system replaces coke ovens and a blastfurnace with a direct reduction shaft and a melter-gasifier. Injection of oxygen into the melter-gasifier is an essential part of the process. This plant also yields a quenched slag – called Corex slag – as a by-product of the iron making.
