Depletion of high-grade iron ore resources leads to increasing use concentrates as raw materials for sinter. One the methods effectively utilize such is Mosaic EmBedding Iron Ore Sintering (MEBIOS), which pre-granulated green pellets are charged into sintering bed with mixture other materials. In this study, effects type and gangue mineral components on strength sintered pellet prepared fine we...

In the iron and steel industry, improving usage amount of New Zealand sea sand ore as a raw material for ironmaking can reduce production costs enterprises to certain extent. this paper, without any grinding pretreatment was used material, oxidized pellets were prepared by using disc pelletizer, effect on performance green metallurgical properties investigated. The effects compressive strength,...

Integrated field studies on environmental levels, bioavailability, biological exposure, and effects SUMMARY Iron-ore is the source of primary iron for the world's iron and steel industries. Almost all (98%) iron-ore is used in steelmaking. Australia and Brazil together dominate the world's iron-ore production, while China is the world's largest iron-ore consumer. In Brazil, iron-ore mining is m...

Size measurement of iron ore pellets in industry is usually performed by manual sampling and sieving techniques. The manual sampling is performed infrequently and is inconsistent, invasive and time-consuming. Iron ore pellet’s sizes are critical to the efficiency of the blast furnace process in the production of steel. Overly coarse pellets affect the blast furnace process negatively, however t...

In an effort to develop breakthrough technologies that enable drastic reduction in CO2 emissions from steel industry (ULCOS project), the reduction of iron ore by pure hydrogen in a direct reduction shaft furnace was investigated. After experimental and modelling studies, a 2D, axisymmetrical steady-state model called REDUCTOR was developed to simulate a counter-current moving bed reactor in wh...
