    Abstract
    In the present paper, the effects of charging of Cold-Briquetted Iron and Carbon (CBIC) into the electric furnace on the steelmaking operating parameters was investigated and compared to the performance of Cold Direct Reduced Iron (CDRI) and Hot-Briquetted Iron (HBI) as the other products of Direct Reduced Iron (DRI) family. The efficiency of the carbon charged through CBIC compared to free-charged carbon into the steelmaking furnace was also evaluated. The results revealed that although the energy consumption of CDRI is somewhat lower than CBIC, the Fe yield content of CBIC is higher and its tap time is lower than CDRI which may improve the productivity of industrial steelmaking plant....
