Iron cycle
Iron (Fe 26) is a chemical element with the symbol Fe (Latin: ferrum) and atomic number 26.Iron is a group 8 and period 4 metal. Iron is a lustrous, silvery soft metal. Iron and nickel are notable for being the final elements produced by stellar nucleosynthesis, and thus are the heaviest elements which do not require a supernova or similarly cataclysmic event for formation.

Iron Cycle
Iron is one of the most abundant elements in the Universe. On the Earth's surface and in its crust, iron exists in two oxidation states, ferrous (Fe 2+) and ferric (Fe 3+) iron.Fe 0 does not exist in nature; it is a major product of industrial activity generated by smelting iron minerals to produce cast iron. The oxidation of ferrous iron can be produced both chemically and biologically ...

Carbon Cycle
Following are the major steps involved in the process of the carbon cycle: Carbon present in the atmosphere is absorbed by plants for photosynthesis. These plants are then consumed by animals and carbon gets bioaccumulated into their bodies. These animals and plants eventually die, and upon decomposing, carbon is released back into the atmosphere.

Iron Ore Pelletizing Process: An Overview
The iron ore production has significantly expanded in recent years, owing to increasing steel demands in developing countries. However, the content of iron in ore deposits has deteriorated and low-grade iron ore has been processed. The fines resulting from the concentration process must be agglomerated for use in iron and steelmaking. This chapter …

Iron Ore Processing: From Extraction to Manufacturing
The final stage in iron ore processing is ironmaking, where the iron ore is transformed into molten iron through a process called reduction. The most common method of ironmaking is the blast furnace route. In a blast furnace, iron ore, coke (carbon), and fluxes (limestone or dolomite) are loaded into the furnace from the top.
