Rashmi Metaliks Diploma Engineer Trainee - DET Interview Questions, Process, and Tips

Very good test, written examination

Q1. 1)What is DRI?Full form
Ans. 
DRI stands for Direct Reduced Iron, a type of iron produced from the reduction of iron ore.
• DRI is produced by removing oxygen from iron ore without melting it.

• It is used as a substitute for scrap in electric arc furnaces.

• DRI is also used as a feedstock in the production of steel.

• The process of producing DRI is known as the direct reduction process.

• DRI is also known as sponge iron.

Q2. 2)what are the 3 main raw materials in the production of iron and steel?
Ans. 
The 3 main raw materials in the production of iron and steel are iron ore, coal, and limestone.
• Iron ore is the primary raw material used to produce steel.

• Coal is used as a fuel and reducing agent in the production of iron.

• Limestone is used as a flux to remove impurities from the iron ore during the smelting process.

Q3. 3) what is blast furnace? BF gas reaction.
Ans. 
Blast furnace is a type of furnace used for smelting to produce industrial metals. BF gas reaction produces carbon monoxide.
• Blast furnace is used for smelting iron ore into pig iron.

• It is a tall cylindrical structure made of steel and lined with refractory bricks.

• The BF gas reaction produces carbon monoxide, which is used as a fuel in various industries.

• The process involves the reduction of iron ore with coke and limes...read more

Q7. Explain Heat treatment process.what are the 3 stages of heat treatment process?
Ans. 
Heat treatment is a process of heating and cooling metals to alter their physical and mechanical properties.
• The three stages of heat treatment are heating, soaking, and cooling.

• Heating is done to a specific temperature depending on the metal and desired outcome.

• Soaking is the holding of the metal at the desired temperature for a specific amount of time.

• Cooling can be done rapidly or slowly depending on the desired outc...read more

Q8. What is the highest temperature in blast furnace? Why is called bf?
Ans. 
The highest temperature in blast furnace is around 2300°F. It is called bf because it is used to produce pig iron.
• The temperature in blast furnace can reach up to 2300°F

• It is called bf because it is used to produce pig iron

• The process involves heating iron ore, coke, and limestone in a furnace

• The coke burns to produce carbon monoxide, which reacts with the iron ore to produce molten iron

• The limestone reacts with impuri

Q9. What is slag? What fuel is used in blast furnace?
Ans. 
Slag is a byproduct of metal smelting process. Coke is used as fuel in blast furnace.
• Slag is a glass-like byproduct of metal smelting process

• It is formed when impurities in the metal ore combine with flux to form a molten mixture

• The mixture is then cooled and solidified to form slag

• Coke, a form of coal, is used as fuel in blast furnace to produce high temperatures needed for smelting

• Coke burns with a high intensity and...read more

Q10. What is tempering, explain some purpose.
Ans. 
Tempering is a heat treatment process used to improve the toughness and ductility of metals.
• Tempering involves heating a metal to a specific temperature and then cooling it down slowly.

• The purpose of tempering is to reduce the brittleness of the metal and increase its toughness and ductility.

• Tempering is often used after a metal has been hardened to make it more workable.

• Examples of metals that are commonly tempered in
