During iron ore sintering process, the presence of calcium ferrite can improve the cool strength and reduction index because of its excellent reducibility and essence force (Chen and Chen, 2011). Moreover, more limestone must be added to the raw materials when higher levels of waste SCR catalysts are applied to keep the basicity …

Abstract. Sintering is the most economic and widely used agglomeration process to prepare iron ore fines for blast furnace use. In this chapter, the sintering process is first described to identify the key steps of the process, that is, granulation and thermal densification. Discussion is then focused on the effect of the chemical, physical ...
2.1 Materials 2.1.1 Chemical composition. The raw materials used in this study include LZWR, iron ore mixture (IOM), limestone, dolomite, burnt lime, and coke. The chemical composition of raw materials is shown in Table 1.Of these, the LZWR was obtained from the heavy-medium separation (HMS) process of raw lead–zinc ore from …
One of the several wastes that are produced at an iron and steel plant is the undersized pellet nes, which cannot be directly used in iron making. The present study evaluated the inuence of these pellet nes on the sintering process. 5 experiments were conducted, by varying the pellet nes from 0 to 50% in the iron ore blend.
For the sintering of a coarse hematite iron ore, it was found that the optimum mean particle size combination of coke breeze and limestone was 1.71mm and 1.55mm in the sinter mix.
Sinter plants agglomerate iron ore fines (dust) with other fine materials at high temperature, to create a product that can be used in a blast furnace.The final product, a sinter, is a small, irregular nodule of iron mixed with small amounts of other minerals. The process, called sintering, causes the constituent materials to fuse to make a single porous mass with …

Fine iron ore concentrate (<0.074 mm) and sinter ore fines (<10 mm) do not need crushing. Limestone and fuel supplied to the sinter plant have a particle size exceeding that required for successful sintering. Limestone and fuel particle size should be no more than 3 mm.
Abstract and Figures. Sintering is an agglomeration process that fuses iron ore fines, fluxes, recycled products, slag-forming elements and coke. The purpose of sintering is to obtain a product ...
It can be seen from Tables 1 and 2 that the blend with high iron grade has a high content of FeO (14.51 wt.%) because it consisted of 70 wt.% magnetite concentrate and 30 wt.% fine ore. The coke breeze has high fixed carbon content (83.37 wt.%) and low volatile matter content (1.57 wt.%). 2.2 Methods. The double-layer sintering process is …
