The processes of direct reduction of ores are intensively used worldwide because of the significant amounts of raw materials needed by the steel industry, so that in the future the quantities of iron sponge / by-products used in the processes of developing ferrous alloys.
The paper presents a synthesis of the processes for the direct reduction of iron ores and the processing or transformation into by-products, intended for the steel industry, of small and powdery waste with Fe content, as well as experimental research in the pilot phase, to obtain some by-products from waste.
Iron-containing by-products from waste processing contribute to expanding the base of steel raw materials in the context of sustainable development and circular economy.
