• Process gas experience allows for use of: natural gas, syngas from coal, pet coke, refinery bottoms, coke oven gas (COG) and off gases from technologies such as COREX®
and FINEX®
• MIDREX® is the only DRI process that provides the ability to simultaneously produce any combination of product types
• Low fines produced (crucial to CDRI & HBI yield)
• Provides maximum flexibility

voestalpine Texas -World’s Largest HBI Plant Built
for the Blast Furnace
Overview
• Capacity: 2,000,000 tons/year
• Location: Corpus Christi, Texas
• Product: HBI
• Start-up: 2016
Driving Forces
• 1 million tons of HBI will be shipped to
voestalpine’s integrated mills
• Increase blast furnace productivity in
the Linz and Donawitz (Austria)
• Decrease specific CO2 emissions
• Provide additional HBI for merchant market
• Leverage low cost NG in USA
![Page 15: Status of Direct Reduction Ironmaking - Home - SEAISIseaisi.org/seaisi2017/file/file/full-paper/Session7B Paper1.pdf · 2 • Process gas experience allows for use of: natural gas,](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062600/5ae166987f8b9ac0428eaeba/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
HBI is expected to see significant growth for use in Blast Furnaces increases productivity
decreases fuel consumption per ton
of hot metal (less coke)
decreases the overall CO2 footprint
HBI can also be used instead of
purchased scrap as a coolant in
the BOF
BF/BOF Steel

Tosyali Algeria
2.5 MTPY HDRI/CDRI Plant
located in Bethioua (Oran), Algeria
HDRI will be fed via an Aumund hot transport conveyor to a new EAF meltshop located adjacent to the MIDREX® DRI Plant allowing for greater EAF productivity and energy savings
CDRI can also be produced for additional onsite use.

DRI production and capacity will continue its growth as the product evolves its role in Global Steelmaking
EAF & BF Steelmaking are fueling growth
Realization of Technologies; increase in shaft furnace adoption
Innovations need to serve the industry; provide options and operational flexibility to steelmakers
