A critical review on the alternative processes to the blast furnace, involving both solid and liquid State reduction is presented. Process comparison allows to identify advantages and disadvantages of each type of processes as well as to highlight the major challenges faced in order to compete with the traditional ironmaking route: the blast furnace, which today rules the production of iron units worldwide.
