Sponge Iron

Sponge Iron | Adukia Industries

As one of the established sponge iron manufacturers in West Bengal, Adukia Industries operates a fully integrated sponge iron plant in West Bengal, producing sponge iron pellets and sponge iron fines that meet the raw material requirements of steel and TMT bar producers across the country. Every batch produced at our sponge iron factory undergoes strict quality checks before entering our integrated production chain. Along with our own pellets and in-house ferro alloys, sponge iron forms the raw material base for our billets, which are further rolled into TMT bars, wire rods, and HB wires, while the same backward-integrated process also supports our ERW pipes production.

Features

1. The high porosity (25-30%) of our product results in excellent reducibility.

2. The uniform size and spherical shape of our product provides excellent bed permeability.

3. Acid pellets are designed to have a high strength of 150-200 kg or more.

4. The heat consumption is significantly lower than that of sintering.

5. Our product features a high iron content and a uniform chemical composition, resulting in lower flux and fuel requirements for the furnace.

6. Our product has a low FeO content.

7. Our product is easy to handle.

8. Product boasts excellent levels of carbon and FeO, with particularly low levels of FeO. This makes it a highly desirable choice for steel mills utilizing DRI to reduce carbon, as the low FeO content offers a significant advantage in the carbon reduction process. This feature, combined with our product’s exceptional quality and low impurity levels, translates to improved efficiency in steel production.

9. Our pellet production process does not involve the use of lime, which means there is no wearing of the inner lining.

10. Material handling results in minimal dust generation.

11. Product has excellent flowability, ensuring continuous and trouble-free charging in bins, pipes, and conveyors.
