SYNOPSIS. Iron ore fines are agglomerated to produce sinter, which is an important feed material for blast furnaces worldwide. A model of the iron ore sintering process has been developed with the objective of being representative of the sinter pot test, the standard laboratory process in which the behaviour of specific sinter feed mixtures is evaluated.
Sintering process is a generic term that is used to describe the process of agglomeration of a green mix of iron ores, fluxes and coke and plant solid wastes having a particle size of 10 mm so as to produce sinter which can withstand operating pressure and temperature conditions existing in a BF.
Ore Sintering. The aim of the MEBIOS process is the formation of a ventilation route in the sintering bed by creating a lowdensity area around the large pellets arising from a kind of wall effect and suppression of sinter bed shrinkage due to support of the load by the dense large pellets in the upper part of the sinter bed. From: Iron Ore, 2015.
The granulation process for iron sinter production is the Q H first step in the production of pig iron, where fine iron ore JPU = (1) A DP together with other fine materials (collected dusts, mill scale), fluxes and coke breeze are converted into agglom where Q is the air flow rate (m3 min−1), A is the cross sec erates.
The process of sintering is basically a pretreatment process step during iron making for the production of the charge material called sinter for the blast furnace from iron ore fines and also from metallurgical wastes (collected dusts, sludge and mill scale etc.).
iron processing, use of a smelting process to turn the ore into a form from which products can be fashioned. Included in this article also is a discussion of the mining of iron and of its preparation for smelting. Iron (Fe) is a relatively dense metal with a silvery white appearance and distinctive magnetic properties.
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 ...
Iron ore sinter plants are energyintensive components of integrated iron and steel production (see Table 1), where the iron ore fines (<5 mm) are converted into larger (>5 mm) lump sinter cakes with greater gas permeability, which are the most important burden materials for iron making in blast furnaces (BFs) [7].The main process is shown in Fig. 2 and described in detail in previous studies ...
Sintering of iron ores is an enormous energyintensive and resources consuming process. Introducing a selective waste gas recirculation (SWGR) to the sintering process reduces the energy consumption, stack gas volume flow, and sulfur dioxide emissions of an iron sinter production. Simulating this complex process in flowsheet simulations of ...
Agglomeration of ironore fines with particles sizes less than mm in a sinter plant is an integral part of the ironmaking process (Jankovic 2015; FernandezGonzalez et al. 2017).In a series of complex reactions between 1250 and 1350 °C, porous semimolten, centimetersized aggregates are formed containing ore particles (hematite and magnetite, constituting 40 to 70% vol.) cemented by a ...
Meanwhile, an iron ore sinter is a crucial material for the ironmaking process, and its chemical, physical, and metallurgical properties significantly impact the blast furnace (BF) performance. 9 In turn, the main materials used for a sinter are iron ore fines, and their chemical compositions play a critical role in the sintering process.

Superhigh bed sintering process is an important development direction of iron ore sintering for its lower emission and higher yield. However, there is a lack of deep understanding of the uneven quality of superhigh bed sintering products, and the deterioration of reduction disintegration performance, the thickening of hearth layer and the reduction in energysaving effect are perplexing ...
Sinter is the first process in the whole ironmaking industry, which plays an important role in the iron and steel production process, and its energy consumption accounts for a large proportion of the entire ironmaking industry, reaching about 10%, which is the second largest energyconsuming process in the entire steel industry.
Sintering is a thermal agglomeration process that is applied to a mixture of iron ore fines, recycled ironmaking products, fluxes, slagforming agents, and solid fuel (coke). The purpose of the sintering process is manufacturing a product with the suitable characteristics (thermal, mechanical, physical and chemical) to be fed to the blast furnace.
According to the Environmental Protection Agency, the sintering process converts finesized raw materials, including iron ore, coke breeze, limestone, mill scale, and flue dust, into an agglomerated product, sinter, of suitable size for charging into the blast furnace.
During the iron ore sintering process trace elements can have four different destinations: remain in the sinter product, be retained by the abatement methods in the form of particulates, be emitted into the atmosphere as particulate material, or be emitted into the atmosphere in the gaseous form ( Xu et al., 2004 ).
shows the iron ore blend mix proportion and mean particle size (MPS) for the iron ore blend for all the experiments. The high Fe and low LOI concentrate within the pellet nes compared to other iron ores can act as a suitable feed for the sinter making process. The amount of micro nes (− 150 µm) in pellet nes is % which is quite high
The selective granulation process is a new sintering process for high alumina iron ore fines, and can eliminate the adverse effects of 'hard to sinter' or 'unsuitable for ironmaking' ores.
