A rate equation describing the reduction rate was developed using the assumption of 1st-order reaction for reactants of hydrogen and ferrous chloride vapors. It was suggested that to improve the performance, the reduction rate can be increased with increase in reaction temperature upto 1173 K as well as with increase in both ferrous chloride and hydrogen partial pressure. The results show that higher reaction temperature may produce larger particles due to an increase in the probability of collision.
