Abstract : Production of steel through the conventional blast furnace route requires coking coal, which is getting depleted the
world over and India has very limited reserves. Hence, evolution of a technology for the reduction of iron ore using
abundantly available non coking coal was contemplated, giving birth to directly reduced iron technology- the DR I or the
sponge iron processes. Though the sponge iron process eliminated the need of the polluting coke ovens and sinter plants of
the conventional blast furnace route of the integrated iron and steel plants, in direct reduction itself, pollution and generation
of wastes have been causing concern in industrial belts. In this paper, an attempt has been made to highlight the basic
principles involved in the environmental issues, particularly with regard to the air pollution and solid waste problems, and
data obtained from some local plants have been studied to evaluate the conditions existing wherein it was observed that
emissions exceed the stipulated values in majority of the cases. Related factors were analysed and some solutions pertaining
to these were also proposed. Air pollution was given emphasis and water and other forms of pollution were kept out of the
present scope of studies.
Keywords- Sponge Iron, Emissions, Wastes.
