Funded Activity Summary

Insoluble Oxide Product Formation and its Effect on Coke Dissolution in Liquid Iron. This investigation addresses the key issue of the effect of oxide formation on coke dissolution during ironmaking. A fundamental understanding of the nature of the oxide layer and its penetration by liquid metal is critical to the optimization of both traditional and new ironmaking technologies. The project will obtain kinetic data that will be used in process models to improve productivity, reduce coke consumption and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. This knowledge is particularly important for maintaining the competitiveness of Australian iron producers due to the high refractory oxide content of local coking coals.
