Effect of water vapor on the reduction kinetics of hematite powder by hydrogen-water vapor in different stages by Mao X.-D., Hu X.-J., Fan Y.-W., Chou K-.C.

“…The microstructure of the reduction products showed that they still had some holes; that did not seriously block the channel for hydrogen diffusion. Various models were considered to further clarify the influence of water vapor in the reduction stage The range of apparent activation energy of the different stages obtained by the model fitting was about 20-70 kJ/mol, which also confirmed the absence of the solid-state diffusion phenomenon.…”
