This "fluidized bed" method of ore-handling is used by all direct-reduction processes except the R-N method. ¶Hydrocarbon Research. Inc. and Bethlehem Steel have developed and extensively tested their "H-Iron" process. This process has the unique distinction of being the only one on which detailed cost figures have so far been revealed. Hydrocarbon's Dr. Arthur M. Squires recently told an audience of oldtime blast furnacemen in Pittsburgh that a 2,200-ton-a-day "H-Iron" plant...
