Sažetak
Iron ore requires agglomeration, which consumes a lot of fuel, which is accompanied by harmful emissions. An alternative is to use biomass to partially replace fossil fuels. A technology has been developed for replacing fossil fuels with biofuels during the firing of pellets. When burning sunflower husks, heat is released to replace up to 48, 3 % of natural gas. Using biogas instead of natural gas also has its advantages. The possibility of producing carbon-containing pellets from agricultural waste and palm shells is considered. The use of biomass as a reducing agent in iron ore mining has proven to be a suitable method for improving the quality of iron ore as well as reducing CO2 emissions.
