Reduction of iron in high-phosphorus oolitic ore from the Lisakovsk deposit using solid carbon, carbon monoxide, and hydrogen. An X-ray phase analysis was used to determine the phase composition of the samples after reduction roasting. When reduced with carbon monoxide or hydrogen, α-iron appears in the samples, while phosphorus remains in the form of iron, calcium, and aluminum phosphates. After roasting with solid carbon, phosphorus is reduced from iron and calcium phosphates and migrates into the metal but remains in aluminum phosphate. A micro X-ray spectral analysis showed that at a temperature of 1000 °C and a holding time of 5 h, during reduction with solid carbon, the phosphorus content in the metallic phase reaches up to 7.1 at. %. When reduced with carbon monoxide under the same conditions, the metallic phase contains only iron, and phosphorus is found only in the oxide phase. When reduced with hydrogen at 800 °C, phosphorus is almost absent in the metallic phase, but at 900 °C, phosphorus is reduced and its content in the metallic phase reaches 2.1 at. %.
