  • Patent number: 10422582
    Abstract: An apparatus for manufacturing molten iron includes: an iron ore-mixing/pre-reducing furnace receiving and mixing natural iron ore and oxidized iron ore to form a mixture, and heating or pre-reducing the mixture using a reaction gas to form a pre-heated or pre-reduced iron ore; an iron ore reduction furnace receiving the pre-heated or pre-reduced iron ore iron ore and reducing the pre-heated or pre-reduced iron ore using a reduction gas to form a reduced iron ore and produce the reaction gas; a molten gasification furnace receiving coal and the reduced iron ore and producing molten iron and the reduction gas; and an iron ore oxidizing-burning furnace receiving part of the reduced iron ore discharged from the iron ore reduction furnace and oxidizing the received reduced iron ore to produce the oxidized iron ore. The oxidized iron ore is supplied to the iron ore-mixing/pre-reducing furnace.

  • Publication number: 20150345870
    Abstract: An apparatus for manufacturing molten iron includes: an iron ore-mixing/pre-reducing furnace receiving and mixing natural iron ore and oxidized iron ore supplied from an iron ore oxidizing-burning furnace, and heating or pre-reducing iron ore using flue gas supplied from an iron ore reduction furnace. The iron ore reduction furnace receives pre-processed iron ore discharged from the iron ore-mixing/pre-reducing furnace or partially reduced iron ore, and reduces the iron ore using a reduction gas discharged from a molten gasification furnace that receives coal and some of reduced iron produced by the iron ore reduction furnace and produces molten iron and a reduction gas to be supplied to the iron ore reduction furnace. The iron ore oxidizing-burning furnace receives new iron ore and some of reduced iron and changes the new iron ore into oxidized iron ore including oxygen by burning the new iron ore and the reduced iron with air.

  • Patent number: 7704526
    Abstract: A sustained-release composition for oral administration of a drug, comprising the drug, a mixture of sodium alginate and xanthan gum as a carrier for sustained release and a mixture of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose and propylene glycol alginate as a gel hydration accelerator, which is capable of maintaining a constant drug level in blood for 24 hours or more. Due to rapid gel hydration without forming a non-gelated core, the drug release rate follows zero order kinetics and does not significantly vary with the degree of gastrointestinal motility.
