The FIOR (Fluid Iron Ore Reduction) process is an example of direct reduction process. The process reduces iron ore fines as the fines are gravity-fed through each reactor in a series of fluid bed reactors. The fines are reduced by compressed reducing gas that enters the bottom of the lowest reactor in the series and flows counter-current to the downward movement of fines.
