The use of charcoal as a thermal and reducing agent in the process of iron ore reduction has great potential as a promoter of sustainability for the steel industry. In order to fully realize this potential it is required the continuous generation of basic knowledge that allows to obtain the technological coefficients of the various process steps. This paper presents experimental results on drying Eucalyptus saligna with the aim to carbonization of the same for the production of charcoal. The following parameters were determined: basic wood density, thermal profile survey of eucalyptus logs, kiln drying speed, thermogravimetric analysis (TG) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) of wood samples and carbonization of wood with different moisture levels. The results obtained can be used in the determination of technological parameters of the carbonization processes.
