The generation of liquid phase in the iron ore sintering is of vital importance to the quality of sinter, including product ratio, tumbler index, etc.

Integrate steel plant has generated a huge amount of fine by-product material. Proper utilization of those fine raw materials for higher value addition to achieve sustainability always challenges metallurgists to develop suitable processes [1, 2].Indian iron ores are characteristically friable in their soft nature, which results in the generation …

In this study, pellets were made from iron ores of Ramallakota and Veldurthi mines, Andhra Pradesh, by the addition of 1.5 to 4.5 wt.% of bentonite and molasses binders.

The article describes the concept of partially replacing the sinter in a blast furnace charge with extrusion briquettes to form the basis for sintering and briquetting synergy.

The present study has raised more questions than it has answered. The remaining questions are: v v v v v v v 1. Can stronger iron ore pellets be made after bentonite is developed into a fibrous matrix? 2. Can the bentonite dosage be reduced in iron ore pellets if bentonite fibers are developed within them? 3.

Ordinary Portland Cement Clinker is the core component in producing cement which is formed by sintering limestone. In the manufacturing of Portland cement, clinker formed by sintering or fusing together without melting to the point of liquefaction, alumina-silicate materials such as clay and limestone during the cement kiln stage and happens as 3 …

Iron ore lump, sinter, and pellets comprise the main burden of modern blast furnaces. However, sinter and pellets are now the dominant blast furnace burden, …

Bentonite referred to as either "Calcium Bentonite" or "Sodium Bentonite" is generally one of the most multi-functional minerals. Basically, the inherent physical properties in Bentonite provide a wide range of industrial applications and since the Middle East is specifically rich in this mineral resource; therefore you can locate the best quality of …

Granulation of the sinter mix is an important step in the iron ore sintering process. This article presents the results of various studies conducted to understand the rheological aspects and ...

A Sinter plant in a steel plant is the final operation in a series of measures to prepare iron ore for blast furnace smelting.A sinter plant is an enterprise with a complicated technological process for producing the final product …

The plant produces 60,000 metric ton per annum of Sulphur-Bentonite (Straight Sulphur fertilizer-90%) as well as other Micro-Nutrients based fertilizers like (Cu, Ma, Zn, Bo, Fe, Mo and Mg). ... The plant is located in Sohar Industrial City in Sohar City, Sultanate of Oman. The plant is operating using state-of-the-art technology and SCADA ...

The limits for emissions to the atmosphere from sinter plants have been tightened in recent years. The current emission limits for Europe and China are summarized in Table 18.1.The best available technique-associated emission levels (BAT-AELs) for air emissions from sinter plants are defined in the commission implementing decision of 28 …

The bentonite dosage in green pellets with around 9.0% moisture was varied between 0% and 1.5%. The large range in bentonite addition made it difficult to maintain constant moisture content. Therefore, the moisture content was 8.7% in green pellets without bentonite and 9.3% with 1.5% bentonite.

Modern sinter plants were developed in 1906 by Arthur S. Dwight and Richard L. Lloyd, and a chain grate strand type sinter machine which was able to operate continuously had been put into operation at Birdboro, Pennsylvania, USA, in 1911 (Vegman et al. 2004).The sintering process gained popularity quickly around the 1950s as …
