- Abstract
Biochar has been extensively used in ferrous metallurgy in recent years as it has comparable metallurgical properties to coke and coal, showing great potential for reduction of the production cost of iron and steel with enhanced quality and for promotion of environmental protection. This article reviewed the main applications of biochar in the iron and steel industry, including its use in coking, iron ore sintering, production of metallized pellets, blast furnace ironmaking, and electric arc furnace steelmaking. The challenges of using biochar and corresponding promising measures were also discussed for sustainable development of the industry.
