formation in rotary kiln by increasing the fusion temperature of the complex compound which sticks to refractory wall by adding suitable additives. Key-words: direct reduction, rotary kiln, accretion and fusion temperature I. Introduction Primary iron production is still predominantly made by the blast furnace process.

The gas based process uses a shaft furnace for the reduction reaction. The coal based process uses any one of the four types of reactors for the reduction reaction. These reactors are (i) rotary kiln, (ii) shaft furnace, (iii) fluidized bed reactor, and (iv) rotary hearth furnace. Rotary kiln is the most popular reactor for the coal based process.
