How is Iron Refined from Ore? (with pictures)

2022-1-28 · Iron ore consists of oxygen and iron atoms bonded together into molecules. To create pure iron, one must deoxygenate the ore, leaving only iron atoms behind, which is the essence of the refining process. To purify and strengthen iron, materials like coke are mixed in with it to remove oxygen. To coax the oxygen atoms away from the ore requires ...

25.2 Extracting ores | Mining of mineral resources | Siyavula

Iron ore, coke and lime are added to the top of a furnace. Hot air is blown in from the bottom. The furnace operates at a high temperature (around 1200°C). Iron ore reacts with carbon/coke to form iron metal and carbon dioxide. The iron is tapped off at the bottom of the furnace.

11.23 Taconite Ore Processing

2015-9-10 · Processing of taconite consists of crushing and grinding the ore to liberate iron-bearing particles, concentrating the ore by separating the particles from the waste material (gangue), and pelletizing the iron ore concentrate. A simplified flow diagram of these processing steps is shown in Figure 11.23-1.
