Iron Ore Processing: From Extraction to Manufacturing

The final stage in iron ore processing is ironmaking, where the iron ore is transformed into molten iron through a process called reduction. The most common method of ironmaking is the blast furnace route. In a blast furnace, iron ore, coke (carbon), and fluxes (limestone or dolomite) are loaded into the furnace from the top.

Iron ore pelletization

15.1. Introduction. 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, because the natural lump supply has declined dramatically due to depletion of the world's high-grade competent iron ore resources.

Effect of organic binders on the activation and properties of indurated

In the ironmaking process, the addition of an organic binder to replace a portion of bentonite has the potential to improve the performance of pellets. The interaction between original bentonite (OB) and organic binder was investigated. Results indicated that the micromorphology of organic composite bentonite (OCB) became porous and the …

Iron ore pelletization

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: •

Iron Ore Pelletization: Part II. Inorganic Binders

The goals stemming from the final reduction process are drawn back through the pelletization process to present a clear rationale for why each material can be used to control the pellet quality. Major inorganic binders such as bentonite, colemanite, and lime are examined along with less commonly used alternatives.

Iron Ore Pelletization: Part I. Fundamentals

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.

Effects of bentonite fiber formation in iron ore pelletization

In the production of iron ore concentrate pellets, binders are required to improve pellet green strength. The most popular binder for this purpose is bentonite clay, which is added at a rate of ...

Review of Organic Binders for Iron Ore Agglomeration

During iron ore agglomeration or pelletization, moist iron concentrate particles and flux materials are rolled into balls with the aid of a binder (Figure 1). Balls tumble and grow in rotating drums and discs. While agglomerates are held together by the surface tension and capillary forces when wet, they will
