Resumo
FINEX® is an alternative ironmaking process based on the direct use of ore fines and sub-bituminous coal. The key technologies are the fluidized-bed reduction of iron ore, the hot fine DRI(direct reduced iron) compaction to HCI(hot-compacted iron), the briquetting of coal fines, and melting of HCI into hot metal. The technologies upgraded by plenty of experience at the pilot and demo plants make it possible to commercialize the process. The first commercial FINEX process,.5 Mt/year FINEX® plant has been operating at Posco’s Pohang Works since April 2007. Recently, the plant is carrying out coke-free operation. Furthermore, the second commercial FINEX® plant which is scaled-up to 2.0 Mt/year, is being constructed at Posco’s Pohang Works
