This paper provides a critical review on the current status and potential of biomass utilization
in ferrous metallurgical processes, ie, the blast furnace (BF)–basic oxygen furnace (BOF) …

As pyrolysis and tar lightening are fundamentally intertwined, understanding the mechanism
of integrated co-pyrolysis of lignite blended with corn straw and tar decomposition-carbon …

Natural iron ore is widely used as a catalytic cracking material in the reforming and
upgrading of co-pyrolysis volatiles, where its surface carbon deposition structure can …

The large proportion of heavy components in volatiles from coal pyrolysis is liable to entrain
dust and form coke, resulting in the difficulty of separating oil from dust, which thus causes …

This work investigates the effects of two kinds of iron ore on the pyrolysis characteristics of a
low-rank bituminous coal from Hami, China. The pyrolysis and its product distribution were …

The use of biomass in different routes of ironmaking has been recently investigated.
Although the volatile matter is the major constituent of the biomass, its contribution as …

The metallurgical industry uses fossil carbonaceous materials in order to fulfill the high
energetic demand of its processes, involving the emission of great amounts of CO 2 that …

Low-grade natural iron ore, limonite, is proposed as an inexpensive catalyst to increase the
light liquid production from coal pyrolysis. Experiments were conducted at a pyrolyzer …

The recovery of valuable chemical elements from industrial waste is essential for production
processes' economic and environmental sustainability. The interaction between the iron ore …

This study optimizes the dehydration temperature of goethite to control pore morphology.
The pore morphology was characterized by using transmission electron microscopy and the …
