Abstract
Mathematic model development and experimental investigations were carried out for the reduction of FeO in slag by coke. Rate expressions for the reduction limited by the different steps and through different reaction routes were proposed. In the experimental investigation, the FeO reduction was found to be a first order and irreversible reaction; the reduction rate increased with increasing temperature and the FeO content in slag, and decreased with increasing ash content in the coke. Low CO2/CO ratio in the product gas and preferential reduction of FeO over SiO2 in slag were observed in the reaction system. The proposed reaction mechanisms were discussed with the observed kinetic phenomena. The reduction of FeO in slag by coke was found most likely to be jointly dominated by the mass transfer of FeO in slag and the chemical reactions at slag‐coke, slag‐gas or slag‐metal interfaces.
