The properties of iron ore sinter – commonly defined by measures of tumble strength, reduction degradation and reducibility – have a major impact on blast furnace performance. These properties are largely influenced by raw material properties, in particular the bulk ore composition. Despite this importance, there is a lack of …
Specular iron ores are medium grade iron ores suitable to use in agglomeration process. However, due to their hard texture, undesirable particle size and shape, poor assimilation performance and low reactivity at high temperature, its uses in agglomeration is very limited and restricted to almost 3-10% at most of the plant. In the …

Iron Ore 2015 was the seventh in a very successful series of international iron ore conferences jointly organised by the AusIMM and CSIRO. The conferences have now become an important biennial bringing together geologists, geoscientists, mineralogists, metallurgists, managers, engineers, operators, equipment manufacturers and service …
The stack emissions of the iron ore sinter plant contain flue gas with CO, CO 2, H 2 O vapors; fine particles of iron ore, sinter components; and particulates of SO x, NO x, KCl, and PCDD/Fs.The appearance of the stack emissions varies with the plume contract, its contents, and the meteorological conditions, especially sunlight intensity, …
Proportioning is an important part of sintering, as it affects the cost of sintering and the quality of sintered ore. To address the problems posed by the complex raw material information and numerous constraints in the sintering process, a multi-objective optimisation model for sintering proportioning was established, which takes the proportioning cost …
