number of ore fines in the mixture. Quite different behaviors of different iron ore fines are observed at higher temperatures. The complexity of the reaction poses difficulties to optimize the process and hence the quality o f the sinter. In the sintering process, the iron ore corresponds to the mixture of hematite, goethite and other gangue
Earlier studies reported on the properties of iron ore and the quality of sinter. However, there is no unified understanding of the effect of SiO. 2. on the fluidity of iron ore, and the main primary mechanism is not clear. The effect of fluidity of iron ore on the reduction of sinter still lacks deep theoretical insights.
Sintering, the welding together of small particles of metal by applying heat below the melting point.The process may be used in steel manufacturing—to form complex shapes, to produce alloys, or to work in metals with very high melting points. In a steel-sintering plant a bed of powdered iron ore, mixed with coke or anthracite, is ignited by a gas burner and then moved along a traveling grate.
Aug 19, 2019 Table of ContentsCharacteristic Data of Ores and AdditiveCharacteristic Data of the ExperimentsSinter OutputPhysical Quality and Structure The authors investigate the influence of the basicity index CaO/SiO2 on the sintering properties of hematite ore mixtures. The experimentation was performed with three different mixtures of ores from Tazadit, Nimba, Mano-River, Itabira, Marcona, …
The iron ore used presents a low MgO content (0.01%) and a high Al2O3 content (2.99%). It was seen that raising the MgO content in the sinter, from 1.4 to 2.6%, increased the FeO content and decreased productivity and the RI, RDI and TI indices [13]. 2.1.4.
When only iron ore powder is used as the powder of the iron-containing raw material, the carbon material-embedded sintered ore does not use iron oxide powder containing metallic iron such as iron dust or mill scale, and can be manufactured using an existing sintering machine. , without preparing a new firing facility, the production volume is ...

The objective of this paper is to develop an iron ore sintering bed model which takes the single par-ticle into consideration and incorporates more informa-tion on individual particles in terms of the entire iron ore sintering bed. 2. Modeling Approach 2.1. Intra-Particle Combustion Model

Aug 18, 2014 Chemical looping combustion (CLC) is a kind of efficient combustion technology to capture CO2. In this paper, the reaction characteristics of CO and sintering ore used as an oxygen carrier (OC) in CLC were investigated through thermogravimetric experiments. The effects of the reaction temperature, particle size, and CO concentration on reduction conversions of sintering ore …
Sasaki and Hida6) discussed the reactions in sintering process and concluded that complex calcium ferrites such as SFCA-I, an Fe-rich phase of silico-ferrite of calcium and aluminium with a characteristic acicular texture, are present in iron ore sinter if the temperature remained below 1 300 C. If however, the temperature of sintering exceeded
Iron ore sintering is a high-temperature, non-equilibrium reaction process that involves the formation of Ca-Fe-O melt. To clarify the mechanisms of liquid sintering, we observed the precipitation of iron oxide and calcium ferrite from liquid Ca-Fe-O by high-temperature in-situ X …
The oxidation and sintering characteristics of magnetite iron ore pellets balled with a novel complex binder (namely MHA) were mainly investigated by batch isothermal oxidation measurements in this research. Combined results reveal that the thermal decomposition of MHA binder influences the oxidation and sintering processes of dried pellets.
Jun 26, 2012 The effect of replacing fine ore by coarse ore on sintering reactions was investigated using an infrared furnace on laboratory scale and sinter pots on pilot plant scale. Five sinter mixes were prepared by changing the percentage coarse ore from 0% to 100% in 25% increments.
The production of most pig iron in the world is based on the use of iron ore sinter which consists of various mineral phases produced by sintering iron ores with fluxes and coke breeze. During the sintering process, the chemical reactions are taking place at high temperature and iron ores and fluxes are combined together and form a

Jun 11, 2019 Sintering: A Step Between Mining Iron Ore and Steelmaking. The USGS defines iron ore as a mineral substance which, when heated in the presence of a reductant, will yield metallic iron (Fe). It almost always consists of iron oxides, the primary forms of which are magnetite (Fe3O4) and hematite (Fe2O3). It’s a major ingredient in steel.
May 06, 2015 So, with the increase of the temperature during sintering, reactions occur between fine particles of iron ores and fluxes to form low-melting compounds and then generate liquid phase, but iron ore nuclei almost would not participate in the reaction for its low reacting speed.
Apr 04, 2021 Iron ore is the key raw material for making iron and steel. However, it cannot be used in its unprocessed state. Sinter production is a thermal process that converts the mixture of agglomeration iron ore fines, coke, and fluxes into a sinter—the primary feed material of suitable composition and granularity for the induction blast furnace.
Differential scanning and high temperature reaction calorimetry have been used to characterize a series of natural iron ore and flux samples commonly used during iron ore sintering. Most iron ore ...
Sintering of iron ore is a pre-process vital to steel manufacturing. It begins with the mixing of fine iron ore, solid fuel such as coke breeze & anthracite coal, and flux such as limestone & dolomite. ... The chemical reaction is: Site Map ...
Jan 01, 1995 The thermodynamic and reaction mechanisms of the processes involved in the reduction of iron ore pellets with and without reductants, additives, etc., may not necessarily be identical. The reduction and sintering characteristics of pellets greatly influence the reaction mechanism and the surface morphology of the reduced pellets.
