title = "The investigation of domestic iron ores for sponge iron production",
abstract = "In the present work, three different domestic iron ores; Sivas Divriǧi B Head high grade hematite lump ore, Malatya-Hekimhan- Hasan{\c c}elebi medium and low grade magnetite lump ores reduced with Soma-Kisrakdere lignite coal to investigate their suitability for sponge iron production. A laboratory scale box furnace was used to carry out the reduction experiments. In the experimental studies different operation parameters were selected being Cfix/Fetot. ratio, temperature in the range of 1100-1250°C and time, to determine their effects on metallization. Metallization degree up to 90 \% was found in the reduction experiments realized by using Sivas Divrigi B Head high grade hematite lump ore, whereas for Malatya-Hekimhan-Hasan{\c c}elebi medium and low grade magnetite lump ores 60-65 \% metallization degrees were obtained.",
