Product Details

Direct Reduced Iron (DRI)

Source of a clean and rich in metallic Iron

Suez steel Co. produce a high Fe, low residual metallic material for producing

High quality iron and steel products in a wide variety of furnaces

 

Benefits of Using DRI in the EAF

 

  • Very low residual element content
  • Can be continuously fed to the furnace.
  • Predictable, uniform & certified chemical analysis
  • Can be hot-charged in integrated plants
  • Predictable mass and heat balances
  • Better slag foaming
  • Carbon content can be tailored to EAF requirements
  • Control of nitrogen in steel
  • Easier to handle than scrap
  • Melt consistency
