Water and wax for low energy and non-polluted iron and steel industry

O

il rich countries now using natural gas as a source for

reducing gas production (H

2

=75% and C0=14%) for

the production of direct reduced iron (DRI) from iron oxide

ore. In this research a new source created which is pure

hydrogen > 99% obtained from electrolysis of water. The

size of hydrogen atom is much smaller than that of carbon

monoxide molecule, thus hydrogen could penetrate much

deeper into the crystal structure of the iron oxide resulting

in greater degree of metallization for the same time of

reduction. After reduction, hydrogen returns back to water,

thus no material consumed with hydrogen (closed circuit

process). Since huge quantity of hydrogen is needed to

reduce the iron oxide (e.g. to produce one million tons/year

DRI), so prolonged electrolysis of alkaline aqueous solution

is required; this will be accompanied by large quantity of

oxygen gas liberated at the anode electrode (430000 tons/

year) which is useful for industry and health purposes,

as well as production of about 108 tons/year heavy water

residue uses in nuclear Industry. The world production of

DRI is 75 million tons/year and continuously increases.

In the present DRI is comparatively new cargo that has

already presented problems when shipped in bulk with

its sponge - like structure is chemically reactive and easily

oxidized with liberation of heat and hydrogen. The author

has developed an efficient process for the treatment of DRI

known as Waxing Process makes the DRI resistant to both

oxidation, corrosion, ignition and stop iron dust formation.

Speaker Biography

Jaleel K Ahmed has expertise in evaluation in Iron and steel industry. He registered 3

patents in USA, UK and Iraq about using water in iron industry an wax for storage and

transportation DRI, and using wax for carburizing of steel. Also he used chlorophyll

as gamma ray absorber to protect Iraqi children from cancer. He also used the

mechanically red beet juice as scavenger for poisonous heavy metal ions and

anticancer and detoxification of urea and uric acid from human body via urine system.
