Efficient Conversion of Sponge Iron from Iron Ore-Coal Composite
Abstract: Today India stands as the largest producer of coal based sponge iron using calibrated ore and non-coking coal. Production of sponge iron, via the direct reduction route using rotary kilns, continues to experience significant growth in India. Direct-reduced iron (DRI), also called sponge iron, is produced from direct reduction of iron ore (in the form of lumps, pellets or fines) by a reducing gas produced from natural gas or coal. …

Eco-Friendly Steel Making for a Sustainable Future
Abstract: The iron and steel industry is one of the most energy-intensive sectors, accounting for approximately 5% of global energy consumption and contributing around 7% of worldwide CO2 emissions. The industry's carbon footprint is particularly challenging to reduce, as carbon plays a crucial role as a stoichiometric reducing agent in conventional steel production. The reduction of iron ore during the manufacture of primary (virgin) steel is responsible for a sizable amount …

Hydrogen-based Steel Making - The future?
Abstract: The largest energy consumer i.e. 5% of global energy consumption and 7% of global CO2 emissions are produced by the iron and steel sector. The steel industry is a significant contributor to anthropogenic CO2 emissions, largely due to the use of carbon as a reducing agent in the production of virgin steel. The main cause of these emissions is the decrease in iron ore. While recycling scrap steel in electric …

Iron Deficiency Anaemia_A Evidence-Based Literature Review
Abstract: Iron deficiency anaemia represents a medical condition characterised by a reduction in the concentration of haemoglobin in the bloodstream below a defined level, according to the World Health Organization. The condition presents itself in two forms: functional IDA and absolute IDA. The former is characterized by normal or elevated total body iron stores, but insufficient iron supply to the bone marrow. At the same time, the latter occurs when total …

A Review on Aerospace Materials and Metallurgy
Abstract: Aerospace metalworking is comparable to the foundation of both space travel and transportation. It involves the scientific design and application of metals and alloys to offer components with the strength required for flight and the ability to survive harsh environments. Although other alloys feature cobalt or iron as the main ingredient, nickel makes up most of alloys used in aeronautical applications. When exceptionally high strength is required in moderate-temperature settings, …

Comparative Analysis of Disc Brake Using Eco-Friendly Material
Abstract: Brakes are crucial components for slowing or stopping the vehicle. Almost all vehicles use disc brakes. The working of a disc brake is simple; when the brake pedal is pressed, braking pads are forced mechanically against the rotor or disc on both surfaces. The friction generated between the rotor and brake pads slows down the vehicle. The design and materials of disc brakes play a significant role in their performance. …
