HIsmelt technology
Key benefits
Green, flexible, high purity and low cost
Significantly lower ⚫Due to the elimination of coke ovens, sinter and/or pellet plants. The

construction of a HIsmelt plant is relatively simple as the HIsmelt
technology uses many of the traditional ironmaking core plant ancillary
facilities, such as hot blast stoves, injection systems and power plants. The
capital costs of constructing a HIsmelt plant could be up to 60% less than
constructing a similar sized BF or DRI plant (including coke ovens, pellet
plants etc.).
• When compared to the traditional BF process, including significantly lower
silicon, manganese and phosphorous content. The lower levels of impurities
provide yield and fluxing benefits in the downstream steelmaking process
for BOF and EAF producers. HIsmelt pig iron will demand higher value-in-use
premium than DRI and BF pig iron.
