Isothermal experiments on the reduction of Fe_2O_3-Cr_2O_3-NiO(molar ratio of Fe-to-Cr-to-Ni is 3:2:2)by graphite were carried out at 1350–1550°C,and effects of various factors on reduction degree were studied.T...Isothermal experiments on the reduction of Fe_2O_3-Cr_2O_3-NiO(molar ratio of Fe-to-Cr-to-Ni is 3:2:2)by graphite were carried out at 1350–1550°C,and effects of various factors on reduction degree were studied.The results show that the reaction rate of the Fe_2O_3-Cr_2O_3-NiO system is fast during the initial period(reduction degree,α<38%),and then the rate decreases until the end of the reduction.Factors such as temperature,carbon content,sample size have a more significant effect during the final stage(α>38%).The metallic product formed at the initial stage(a Fe-Ni alloy)greatly promotes the reduction of Cr2O3 at the final stage.Further,during the reduction of Fe_2O_3-Cr_2O_3-NiO by carbon,interfacial reaction is the rate-controlling step and g(α)=1-(1-α)0.5 is the reaction mechanism for the initial stage,whereas two-dimensional diffusion is the rate-controlling step and f(α)=α+(1-α)ln(1-α)is the reaction mechanism for the final stage.The apparent activation energies are 55.43 k J/mol and 174.54 k J/mol for the initial and the final stages,respectively.展开更多
