With the movement toward hydrogen-enriched blast furnace operation to lower greenhouse gas emissions, ferrous burden design must be reconsidered to optimize furnace permeability. Increasing the ratio of direct charge lump ore in the ferrous burden also presents an opportunity to lessen the emissions associated with the production of sinter and pellets. Under traditional blast furnace conditions, lump ore usage is improved by mixing it with the sinter in the burden to promote their favorable high-temperature interactions (both chemical and physical). As such, mechanistic changes to the interaction must be understood to optimize burden design, including for future operations with hydrogen addition. In this study, liquid formation in both the metallic and oxide components of ferrous burdens is microscopically investigated. Oxide liquid and solid phase stability at the interfaces of dissimilar burdens are visualized using a novel mapping technique, and metallic iron is etched to reveal microstructures indicative of carbon. Results indicate that the inclusion of hydrogen promotes the gas carburization of metallic iron in sinter, but not lump. It was concluded that mixed burden softening and melting performance with hydrogen addition were improved through the addition of lump in two ways: the highly metallic lump particles provide structural support for the collapsing sinter bed and also suppress the formation of early liquid slag from the sinter.
