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
