The invention relates to a pulverized 
coal melt separation and 
recovery method for low-grade iron resources and belongs to the technical field of 
ferrous metallurgy and environment protection. The pulverized 
coal melt separation and 
recovery method for low-grade iron resources comprises the steps that pulverized 
coal, raw materials containing iron and a fluxing agent are mixed to prepare carbon-containing 
pellets and are directly reduced rapidly; the metallized 
pellets are hot-charged in a melt separation furnace; heat required by melt separation is provided by hot air blown in from an air port and through 
combustion of hot coal left in the metallized 
pellets, and separation between 
slag and iron and 
recovery of iron are completed. The pulverized coal melt separation and 
recovery method for low-grade iron resources has the advantages that the heat 
utilization rate is increased, use amount of 
coke is reduced during melt separation, and 
energy consumption and production cost are reduced. Due to the fact that metallurgical 
solid waste and low-grade 
iron ore are high in 
slag content and low in iron grade, it is not economical if a traditional 
blast furnace technique is used for recovering iron; due to the fact that no 
coke layer exists in a traditional coal-based melt separation technique, molten iron carburization is not sufficient; in addition, due to the fact that the heat 
conductivity coefficient of a 
slag layer is low, iron melting is difficult. By the adoption of the technique, the high temperature and the 
high heat utilization rate which are required by molten iron melting are guaranteed; the technique is suitable for 
processing low-grade resources containing iron, and the current utilization situation of metallurgical 
solid waste and low-grade ore is greatly changed.
