Treatment of iron ore using biomass waste for ironmaking
Mini blast furnace ironmaking projects have been constructed to meet the demand of domestic steel in Malaysia. However, Malaysia only has low grade iron ore instead of commercially high grade ore as raw material. The use of low grade ore will cause in extra energy consumption to release combined wat...
