The water-gas shift reaction restrains efficient utilization of gas, particularly in high temperature and hydrogen-rich gas. The gas utilization dropped with increase of carburization quantity of direct reduction iron (DRI) and oxygen potential of atmosphere.

For the H2-CO mixture atmosphere, the reduction process is controlled by both interfacial chemical reaction and internal diffusion.
