reduction. Whilst almost all of the zinc was lost from the samples within the 30 min of
experimentation, the iron was completely reduced to its metallic form. The product
resembles DRI and as such can offer a material to the steel industry which can lower
costs and allow for the recycling of valuable material, reducing coal consumption.
