Iron ore sintering is a pretreatment step of smelting that agglomerates the iron ore using surface melting of green pellets to improve the quality of the steel product. The sintering process not only improves the quality of steel products, but also releases CO and CO2 gases, evaporates moisture, and improves the reducibility of iron ore to ensure smooth operation of the blast furnace. These ...
Lowgrade iron ores are finely ground and processed to recover ironbearing minerals. However, the ironrich powder is too fine to be used directly in blast furnaces and most direct reduction furnaces, and must be agglomerated or pelletized into a usable product called "pellets." Bentonite clay has traditionally been used as a binder to make iron ore concentrate pellets, but it is ...

This mathematical evaluation focuses on iron ore ultrafines for their use in a novel hydrogenbased fluidized bed direct reduction process. The benefits of such a process include reduced CO2 emissions and energy consumption per ton of product, lower operational and capital expenditure, and a higher oxide yield. Typical samples of iron ore ultrafines, such as pellet feed, are given and ...
Iron ore pellets are small and hard spherical particles agglomerated from a fine iron ore concentrate. They are used in the blast furnace process to produce hot metal. The diameter of blast furnace pellets is usually between 8 and 16 mm. In this study, a batch of magnesia iron ore pellets was first sieved into particle sizes of 810 mm, mm, mm and 1620 mm, and the four ...
As there can be significant variation in process requirements and sources of iron ore fines, testing is often an essential part of the development of a successful iron ore pelletizing operation. Different sources of iron ore will respond differently to agglomeration, and process requirements will subsequently vary.
Pelletization is an agglomeration process of iron ore concentrates with a granulometry lower than 150 m and low concentration of impurities [10, 11]. This iron ore is mixed with water, bentonite (or other organic binders less expensive and contaminant [12]), and lime and treated
