Pellets for Direct Reduction
Since direct reduction takes place entirely in the solid phase and preferably up to 95% – 97% reduction, LKAB has introduced the following concepts as measures of reducibility in isothermal reduction: t95 = time required to reach 95% reduction, expressed in minutes. R40 = rate of oxygen loss at 40% reduction, expressed in % O/min.

DRI production | International Iron Metallics Association
DRI production. Direct reduction of iron is the removal of oxygen from iron ore or other iron bearing materials in the solid state, i.e. without melting, as in the blast furnace. The reducing agents are carbon monoxide and hydrogen, coming from reformed natural gas, syngas or coal. Iron ore is used mostly in pellet and/or lumpy form.
