The SR process typically involves two reduction stages, prereduction of iron ore at its solid state and final reduction and melting of the partially reduced iron ore in liquid state. The SR process produces liquid pig iron by direct use of coal, and its product can be treated and refined in the same way as the hot metal (liquid pig iron) from ...
