• Experimental and Numerical Study on Tapping of Two Liquids through a Single Tap-Hole 

      Loomba, Varun; Olsen, Jan Erik Øvrebø; Reynolds, Quinn Gareth; Oxtoby, Oliver; Einarsrud, Kristian Etienne (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      The production of industrial metals in pyrometallurgical smelting furnaces is central to modern industry. Tapping of metal and slag from smelting furnaces is a complex and difficult process. Any variations from tap to tap ...
    • Kinetics Analysis of Steam Reforming of Methane on Sponge Iron 

      Ramos Ribeiro, Tiago; Ferreira Neto, João Batista; Rocha Poço, João Guilherme; Takano, Cyro; Kolbeinsen, Leiv; Ringdalen, Eli (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      The kinetics of steam reforming of methane catalyzed by sponge iron was studied at temperatures between 875°C and 1050°C. Results shows that sponge iron acts as a catalyst and methane conversion is increased in higher ...
    • Steam Reforming of Methane on Sponge Iron: Influence of GasComposition on Reaction Rate 

      Ramos Ribeiro, Tiago; Neto, João Batista Ferreira; Poco, Joao G R; Takano, Cyro; Kolbeinsen, Leiv; Ringdalen, Eli (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Direct Reduction processes use gases (CO and H2) for iron reduction and production of sponge iron or direct reduced iron (DRI). The generation of this gas occurs through methane reforming, which can be done in a reformer ...
