· Solvent Extraction of Iron in a Zinc Plant. The conceptual flowsheet in Figure 2 shows how the process for extracting iron by a carboxylic acid is integrated into the hydrometallurgical processing of zinc. The neutral leach and the hot acid leach will basically be the same as in the conventional Jarosite and Goethite processes.
· Zone of reduction: This is the most important zone and has temperature of 600-7000c. In this zone Fe2O3 is reduced to iron by co in three steps. 3Fe2O3 + CO → 2Fe3O4 + CO2. Fe3O4 + CO → 3FeO + CO2. FeO + CO → Fe + CO2. (Solid state) From the bottom of blast furnace, molten slag and molten iron are tapped out.
· 3. Blasting our climate: carbon dioxide is the main by-product of iron extraction. The star of the show in the blast furnace is coke.First, it acts a fuel to provide energy for the reduction of haematite. Second, coke forms carbon monoxide, which then serves as the reducing agent to reduce haematite to iron.. Unfortunately, as haematite is reduced to iron, coke is concomitantly …
· Hematite reverse flotation method is a method used for the extraction of iron from hematite, which uses ionic or cationic collectors to float gangue minerals from raw ore. The anionic collector reverse flotation method is mostly used when the pH value is 8-9. It is used to treat quartz-containing gangue minerals.

Iron is the most abundant element by mass of our entire planet, making up 35% of the mass of the Earth as a whole. Steel is an alloy consisting mostly of iron, with a carbon content between 0.02% and 1.7 or 2.04% by weight (C:1000–10,8.67Fe), depending on grade. Carbon is the most cost-effective alloying material for iron, but various other ...
· Mild steel is iron containing up to about 0.25% of carbon. The presence of the carbon makes the steel stronger and harder than pure iron. The higher the percentage of carbon, the harder the steel becomes. Mild steel is used for lots of things – nails, wire, car bodies, ship building, girders and bridges amongst others.
· The extraction of iron from its ores is quite a technical process. The iron ore is first roasted in air to produce iron(III) oxide which is mixed with coke and limestone and then further heated to a very high temperature in a blast furnace.
