The majority of iron ores must be ground to a fine particle size to allow the iron oxides they contain to be concentrated, and the concentrate must then be agglomerated back into large enough particles that they can be processed in blast furnaces. The most common agglomeration technique is pelletization, which requires the use of binders to hold the iron oxide grains together so that the ...
Iron ore pellets are spheres of typically 616 mm ( in) to be used as raw material for blast furnaces. They typically contain 6472% Fe and various additional material adjusting the chemical composition and the metallurgic properties of the pellets. [3] Typically limestone, dolomite and olivine is added and Bentonite is used as binder.
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.
HighLOI iron ore fines are required for detailed laboratory pelletization studies and are used in pellet making. The received iron ore is martitegoethitic and hematitegoethitic form of ore with high LOI content. The iron ore consists of % Fe, % SiO2, % Al2O3, % moisture and % LOI. From thermogravimetric analysis, the ...
Bentonite solutions have viscous, variable, and lubricant properties. Different types of bentonites influence pellet properties, as well as the interaction among heterogeneous or homogeneous bentonites and iron concentrate [ 3 6 ]. In this study, we utilized three different types of bentonites for a pelletizing test.
ture is required, as well as a binder agent, for instance bentonite or Portland cement. The mixture is sent to the extrusion machine to obtain the agglomerated product [8]. Pelletization Pelletization is an agglomeration process of iron ore concentrates with a granulometry lower than 150 m and low concentration of impurities [10, 11].

A similar microstructure was found for bentonite in the high pressure frozen iron orebentonite slurry, as shown in Figure 3a, close to a large magnetite particle corresponding to the bright region on the lefthand side of the expected, the microstructure of welldispersed smectite ...
fine concentrate. The most commonly employed one is pelletizing in iron ore industry. In pelletizing, iron ore, water and a binder are balled in a mechanical disc or drum to produce agglomerates. Bentonite is the most widely used binder. However, it is considered as an impurity due to its high SiO 2 and Al 2O 3 content. Many researchers have ...
1. Introduction. Iron ore pellets are an essential part of the blast furnace charge, with high grade, good strength, uniform particle size, good metallurgical properties, and so forth. 1,2 Especially, fluxed iron ore pellets have better hightemperature soft fusion performance and reduction performance. 3−5 However, the burden of the blast furnace is still dominated by a high proportion of ...

Keywords: HA, modified bentonite, characterization, iron ore, pelletization Abstract A new kind of iron ore pellet binder named humic acid modifying bentonite (HAMB) has been developed by the author's group, which has the advantages of both organic HA and inorganic bentonite. The green pellet strength can be obviously improved by
Our iron ore pelletizing systems combine the best features of both technologies to provide the most modern plant and to produce pellets at the lowest cost and highest quality. Pellet plants sized from to 9MTPA. Engineering and design of complete plants from ore receiving to pellet discharge. Supply of the main pelletizing and indurating ...
The production of iron ore pellets at JSW Steel Limited involves the drying of iron ore fines to get the moisture less than 1% and grinding the dried material to get the required fineness 45 μm size ≥%.Prior to the formation of green pellets, the ground ore is mixed with small amounts of binding agents such as bentonite ( to %), fluxes such as limestone to get the pellet ...
Bentonite is the traditionally used binder in iron ore pelletization. However, it consists of up to 85% silica and alumina which are undesired acidic gangue in ironmaking.
Arrium Australia 440 Iron Ore. The pelletizing process involves the preparation of ra w materials; the proportioning. and mixing of raw materials; the formation, preheating, and ...
ABSTRACT The addition of pellet binders often represents a compromise between the pellet grade and quality measures as strength, reducibility, and dustiness. Each inorganic compound present within the pellet plays a specific role in each aspect of creating a highquality pellet. This review seeks to clarify the roles of both binders and coincidentally present inorganic compounds to highlight ...
FOR IRON ORE PELLE"nZATION By Larry A. Haas,1 Jeffrey A. Aldinger,2 and Robert K. Zahl3 ABSTRACT The Bureau of Mines investigated the use of organic binders as substitutes for bentonite in agglomerating iron ore concentrate. Over 30 organic binders were evaluated at several dosage levels in laboratory tests.
Bentonite and calcium hydroxide are the widely used binding materials in iron ore pelletizing plants. This investigation deals with studying the effect of using a mixture of both binders on the ...
The functions and molecular structure of organic binders for iron ore pelletization have been investigated in this paper based on the basic principles of molecular design, interface chemistry and polymer science as well as failure model of binding systems. The following conclusions are achieved. Functionally, good organic binders for iron ore ...
As known, in order to produce green pellets, bentonite binder (< 1 wt%) and moisture (89 wt%) is added to the iron ore concentrates powder with particle size of less than 45 microns. Then, the mixture of raw materials is transformed into the 916 mm diameter green pellet by balling disk [ 5 ].
