Effect of EFB content on reducibility of low grade iron ore composite at 1000°C - 1200°C
This paper focus on reduction of low grade iron at high temperature using palm oil empty fruit bunch as a reductant. The samples were crushed and compacted into composite pellet with EFB before drying at 110oC for 24 hours. The reduction test was then conducted by heating the composite pellet in...

| Summary: | This paper focus on reduction of low grade iron at high temperature using palm oil
empty fruit bunch as a reductant. The samples were crushed and compacted into composite
pellet with EFB before drying at 110oC for 24 hours. The reduction test was then conducted by
heating the composite pellet in an electric tube furnace. The parameter used was at temperature
range 1000oC to 1200oC and under argon gas atmosphere. The efficiency of the empty fruit
bunch in the reduction process was investigated based on the extent of reduction of the iron
oxide. The results showed that the extent of reduction obtained was 38.97% at 1200oC. This
study demostrates that within the temperature range studied, reducibility of low grade iron ore
with an empty fruit bunch tends to increase as the temperature increase |
