Sintering is a thermal agglomeration process that is applied to a mixture of iron ore fines, recycled ironmaking products, fluxes, slag-forming 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.
The development of such a tool, a user-friendly simulator, named, virtual indurator, is presented here. The principal motivation for this work is to provide an easy-to-use tool to plant engineers and operators for on-line process analysis, optimization and control of iron ore pellet induration on a moving grate.

Iron ore sinter is an ordinarily utilized iron-bearing burden in BF iron-making unit. The sintering agglomeration procedure aims to form high strength sinter including granulating of the mixed materials, distributing the granulated materials and then igniting the fuels (coke or coal), sintering the iron-bearing materials by the combustion of fuel in a …

Industry Example: Ore agglomeration creates a uniform particle size distribution, which in turn maximizes the heap leaching process, allowing a more efficient extraction of minerals from the ore. Process Benefits: Elimination of dust and fines, enhanced process flow effectiveness, and increased process efficiency.
Iron ore is available in nature in form of hematite, magnetite, goethite, limonite etc. Out of which hematite and magnetite are the major source. ... Mineral Processing and Extractive Metallurgy Review An International Journal Volume 40, 2019 - Issue 4. Submit an ... Innovative Development on Agglomeration of Iron Ore Fines and Iron Oxide Wastes.
The cathodes are refined on-site to produce dore bullion containing 92 pct gold and 6 pct silver. The dore bars are shipped to a custom refinery for processing. Recoveries by agglomeration-heap …
The present study evaluated the influence of these pellet fines on the sintering process. 5 experiments were conducted, by varying the pellet fines from 0 to 50% in the iron ore blend. It was found that the productivity decreased from 1.65 to 1.17 t/hr/m2 and sintering time increased from 27.5 to 34.5 min with increas-ing pellet fines.
The fine-sized copper ore was first mixed with metakaolin in a plastic case before agglomeration. After this first mixing, the ore–metakaolin mixture and alkali activator solution were mixed in a plastic case by rapidly hand spraying the latter over the former, and the resultant mixture was subsequently transferred to a polyethylene …
The sinter plant that converts the iron ore fines into a desirable blast furnace feed, offers an avenue for recycling wastes. One of the several wastes that are produced at an iron and steel plant is the undersized pellet fines, which cannot be directly used in iron making. The present study evaluated the influence of these pellet fines on the sintering …
are forming during ore mining and processing, was used for the first time in the XIX century with fabrication of briquettes [3]. Success of the briquetting technology was finalized in starting of operation of such production lines in Sweden, UK and USA until 1913. However, the pat-ents for agglomeration methods of iron ore via sintering
Iron ore sintering is an agglomeration process of iron ore fines, fluxes, fossil fuel (coke and coal), and some iron-bearing waste materials in the ironmaking and steelmaking industry . Sinter is one of the main raw materials used in a blast furnace (BF) accounting for more than 70% ferrous burden of BF in China [ 2 ].
Dry processing of iron ore: In dry processing of iron ore, ROM is generally crushed below 40 mm through three-stage crushing and thus segregated by screening into 10–40 and −10 mm fractions. For softer ore, tumbler index is generally low and hence lump ore is crushed below 10 mm to produce fine product. Yield from the plants has …
The process of sintering begins with the preparation of the raw materials consisting of iron ore fines, fluxes, in-plant metallurgical waste materials, fuel and return fines of the sinter plant. These materials are mixed in a rotating pelletizing drum and water is added in order to reach proper agglomeration of the raw materials mix.
The pin mixer-disc pelletizer combination has become an increasingly popular approach to wet granulation, or agitation agglomeration. The technique can be found throughout industrial processing facilities, from fertilizer and soil amendment granulation to the agglomeration of iron ore and other minerals, and even in the production of …

This book focuses on agglomeration, or the size enlargement process, of iron ores. This process sits at the interface of mineral processing and extractive metallurgy. The book …
The iron concentrate is a product of the hydrometallurgical processing of uranium ore. As it contains up to 65% of iron, it can be used as a raw material for ferrous metallurgy (Fernández ...

In a reduction roasting process the nonmagnetic iron is converted into magnetite (Fe 3 O 4), or maghemite (γ-Fe 2 O 3). Ore fines of 0–3 mm were treated with coal (10, 15, and 20%) at different temperature (500–750 °C) and passed through the low intensity magnetic separator (0.2–0.3 Tesla). The iron present in the form of hematite ...
There are several agglomeration processes including: briquetting, extrusion, nodulization, pelletizing and sintering, although pelletizing and sintering are the most widely used, and especially sintering process (70% blast furnace load).
There are four types of agglomerating processes which have been developed (Fig 1). They are (i) briquetting, (ii) nodulizing, (iii) sintering, and (iv) pelletizing. Fig 1 Agglomeration processes. Briquetting is the …
