There is a growing demand for greatly raising the productivity of hot metal which is produced with low cost at the existing blast furnace because large investments for installing a new blast furnace is required nowadays. In this connection, the injection of fine ore through the blast furnace tuyere is available as one of the techniques meeting the demand. There was a case where an attempt had ever been made to inject crude fine ore even in the past. In this case, it was aimed primarily at reducing Si content of hot metal. However, this was not put to practical use by the reason that the lower part of blast furnace was sensitively affected by heat fluctuation resulted from the endothermic reduction reaction of injected crude fine ore. The increase of heat fluctuation gave difficulty in maintenance of stable operation of the furnace. This presentation devotes discussions on the effect of injection of prereduced fine ore and some technical questions to be worked out for injection.
