Resumo: Charcoal is a very important reducing agent in Brazil, the world’s largest steel industry based on charcoal blast furnace. Charcoal generates large amounts of charcoal fines during its production and processing. A good alternative for harnessing this fuel is the injection into coke-based blast furnaces via PCI process (Pulverized Coal Injection), a key technology for reducing use of coke in ironmaking. This study aimed to evaluate the combustibility and reactivity to CO2 of binary blends of charcoal fines and coals with purpose to PCI. Moreover, it was also attempted to identify the reasons for the different behavior of coals. The work was carried out by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The proportions of charcoal used were 10, 20 and 50% in mass. Charcoal showed the highest combustibility and reactivity among tested fuels and the blends formulated had higher combustibility and reactivity than single coals.
