Iron ore is used mostly in pellet and/or lumpy form. Oxygen (O2) is removed from the iron ore by chemical reactions based on H2 and CO for the production of highly metalized DRI. In the direct reduction process, the solid metallic iron (Fe) is obtained directly from solid iron ore without subjecting the ore or the metal to fusion.
At present various naturally available minerals containing MgO viz. olivine, pyroxenite, dunite, dolomite etc. are widely used in different plants to reduce RDI of iron ore pellets and improve other properties. However, properties of each of the above fluxes are physically and chemically different and they contain different types and quantities …
Pelletizing of iron ore is a method of Swedish origin, patented in 1912 by AG Andersson (Yamaguchi et al., 2010). The process was developed in the USA in the 1940s, and the first commercial plant …
Iron ore beneficiation is the process of improving the quality of iron ore by removing impurities and increasing its iron content. It is necessary to reduce alumina and silica in the feed. The process improves the chemical, physical, and metallurgical characteristics of the ore to make it a more desirable feed for iron-making furnaces.
Until the 1950s of the last century, the oxidized iron ores that were loaded into the blast furnace had granulometries within 10 and 120 mm. However, the depletion of high-grade iron ore sources has made necessary the utilization of concentration processes with the purpose of enriching the iron ore. Because of these processes, a fine …
As part of efforts to reduce anthropogenic CO2 emissions by the steelmaking industry, this study investigated the direct reduction of industrially produced hematite pellets with H2 using the Doehlert experimental design to evaluate the effect of pellet diameter (10.5–16.5 mm), porosity (0.36–0.44), and temperature (600–1200°C). A strong …
Different operating modes do exist during the iron ore sintering process, and different operating modes will result in different combustion efficiencies, qualities, and yields. The operating mode is often judged by the operator, but whether the operating mode is judged correctly or not can only be determined by the detection of the sinter ore ...
This process of converting iron ore into pellets is known as Pelletization. Iron Ore Pellets are then used in the production of steel. Pellets are usually preferred instead of raw Iron Ore because it allows for maximum utilization of iron ore. This is important since iron ore reserves are depleting globally.
This book focuses on agglomeration, or the size enlargement process, of iron ores. This process sits at the interface of mineral processing and extractive …
Map showing the location of Iron Ore Mines in India. Iron Ore mines are found in different regions of India. Iron Ore Distribution in India. India has significant reserves of iron ore, with the majority of the deposits located in the states of Odisha, Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand, Karnataka, and Goa. Iron ore resources are relatively …

Sponge iron is a highly ferrous ore from the direct reduced iron process! In order to prevent excessive re-oxidation of the sponge iron in the ambient air, it must be cooled down in the lower region of the shaft furnace. Carburisation as in the blast furnace process does not occur in the DRI-process, as coke is not used as a reducing agent.
The pelletization process is the primary consumer of binders in the iron ore industry. The selection of an appropriate binder type and dosage is of critical importance in producing good quality pellets at a reasonable price. Binders accomplish two very important functions in iron ore pelletization:
The flotation of natural occurring banded iron ore using different starches has indicated that it is possible to achieve an iron grade of 63–65% Fe with 85–88% recovery. Previous article ... Reverse flotation of iron ore is now drawing more attention in iron ore industry as an efficient beneficiation process (Ma et al., 2011, Filippov et ...
ABSTRACT. The behavior of iron ore pellet binders is complex. Any pellet binder is subject to a handful of practical requirements: that it be readily dispersed through a pellet, that it effectively controls the movement of water within the pellet, and that it contributes to the inter-particle bonding within the pellet.
Sintering is a process that consists in the thermal agglomeration of a mixture of fines that comprise iron ore, recycled iron and steelmaking products, slag-forming …
The Steel Manufacturing Process. The steel production process is a multi-faceted journey that begins with extracting and processing iron ore, a primary raw material essential to steel making. Iron ore undergoes a series of refining steps to extract the iron content, culminating in the creation of molten iron.
This article takes an in-depth look at iron ore agglomeration in the FEECO Innovation Center, emphasizing the benefits of agglomeration, processing methods, and challenges associated with the unique …
With the depleting reserves of high-grade iron ore in the world, froth flotation has become increasingly important to process intermediate- and low-grade iron ore in an attempt to meet the rapidly growing demand on the international market. In over half a century's practice in the iron ore industry, froth flotation has been established as an …
1. Introduction. Iron ore pellets are one of the significant sources of iron for iron and steel making due to their superior metallurgical performance, low energy consumption, and less emission of environmentally harmful dust and gases during the production process [1], [2], [3].The two primary raw materials for pellet production are …
Boron is an important industrial raw material often sourced from minerals containing different compounds that cocrystallize, which makes it difficult to separate the mineral phases through conventional beneficiation. This study proposed a new treatment called flash reduction-melting separation (FRMS) for boron-bearing iron concentrates. In …

Coke breeze is the main heat source in sintering process. Its combustion yields enough amounts of heat which melts the sinter mix. One of the factors that significantly affect the course of coke breeze combustion is its grain size [1,2,3].It is known that fine-grained coke reduces permeability of the sinter mix and the use of coke breeze …
