The oxygen from the iron ore reacts with the reducing gas, mainly composed by a mixture of CO and H 2 at elevated temperatures to produce metallic iron while releasing CO 2 and H 2 O. The heat required for the endothermic reduction with hydrogen is supplied by the energy released from the exothermic reaction between carbon monoxide and iron oxides.

The direct reduction process uses pelletized iron ore or natural "lump" ore. One exception is the fluidized bed process which requires sized iron ore particles. Few ores are suitable for direct reduction. The direct reduction process can use natural gas contaminated with inert gases, avoiding the need to remove these gases for other use.
