Hot Briquetted Iron (HBI) is a high-quality steelmaking feedstock, formed by compressing Direct Reduced Iron (DRI) at high temperatures (typically between 650 and 700°C) into dense briquettes. This process improves handling, reduces reactivity, minimizes the risk of spontaneous combustion, and enhances safety during storage and transportation compared to standard DRI. HBI serves as an efficient and premium alternative to steel scrap, widely used in Electric Arc Furnaces (EAFs) and Induction Furnaces (IFs). Its attributes, such as high density, low porosity, and consistent composition, make it a preferred choice for global steel production.
Hot Briquetted Iron (HBI)
Premium grade Hot Briquetted Iron (HBI) featuring an Fe Metal content of 79% ±1% and Fe Total of 86% ±1%, designed to provide superior purity and reliability for steelmaking processes. With a Metallization Degree exceeding 90%, this HBI ensures exceptional reduction efficiency and dependable performance in both EAF and BOF operations. Its low impurity levels Carbon (0.8–1.5%), Al₂O₃ (up to 1.5%), CaO (up to 1.5%), SiO₂ (up to 4.5%), MgO (up to 2.5%), Phosphorus (up to 0.05%), and Sulfur (up to 0.01%)—enable clean steel production, boost operational efficiency, and minimize slag formation. Perfectly suited for export markets demanding consistent quality and superior metallurgical results.
