In particular, for pelletising and sintering operations, the ore contact angle affects both the amount of liquid absorbed into the pores of the particles and the amount of liquid required to successfully bond the particles together. Liquid-bound powders must attain a certain minimum strength in order to successfully form granules.
The sintering rate increases in both the phases with increasing fineness in the magnetite concentrate. A finer grind in the raw material, therefore, promotes the formation of the unwanted duplex structures with a more heavily sintered core pulling off from the shell. At constant original porosity in green pellets, the oxidation rate decreases ...

Sintering is made by charging a mixture of ore fines together with coke breeze, fluxes, in-plant returns and return fines onto a circulating grate, or sinter strand, and igniting the coke breeze contents in the surface. A flame front passes through the layer of the mixture over the strand length and agglomerates the mixture into coarse lumps of ...

Development of the technologies ...
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: .
