The sintering process is a well-established process in use at integrated steel making plants. It consists of an agglomeration through an oxidizing/reducing fusion of iron ore fines (sinter feed) and fluxing agents (lime, limestone, etc.) as well as re-circulated materials (dust, sludge, etc.) at temperatures between 1200 °C to 1400 ° C. A carbon based solid fuel is …

The iron oxide (FeO) content had a significant impact on both the metallurgical properties of sintered ores and the economic indicators of the sintering process. Precisely predicting FeO content possessed substantial potential for enhancing the quality of sintered ore and optimizing the sintering process. A multi-model integrated prediction framework for FeO …
Coke breeze is the main heat source in sintering process. Its combustion yields enough amounts of heat which melts the sinter mix. One of the factors that significantly affect the course of coke breeze combustion is its grain size [1,2,3].It is known that fine-grained coke reduces permeability of the sinter mix and the use of coke breeze with particle size below 1 …
Sintering is a thermal agglomeration process, and its main raw materials are iron ore, returning sinter ore, fluxes, and coke (Fernández-González, Ruiz-Bustinza, Mochón, González-Gasca, & Verdeja, 2017).The high energy consumption and serious pollution associated with the sintering process have always been an important concern of iron and …
The iron ore sintering process was simulated and computational domain was the same as the configuration of a sinter pot as shown in Fig. 1. Entrance of the sinter pot was defined as a velocity inlet. The magnitude of velocity was obtained from the experimental gas-flow rate [7]. The bottom of the sinter pot was set to be pressure outlet which ...
Sintering is the most economic and widely used agglomeration process to prepare iron ore fines for blast furnace use. Owing to the depleting reserves of traditional high grade iron ore, there have been considerable …

The combustion behaviour of solid fuels – for example, coke and biomass char – is an important consideration in iron ore sintering as it determines heat availability for the melt formation process. This behaviour is influenced by the presence of an adhering layer of fine material around the fuel particles.
Sintering of iron ore is a generic term which is used to describe the process whereby a sinter mix (raw mix or green mix) of iron ore fines, fluxes, fuel (coke breeze) and plant return fines (e.g. mill scale, blast furnace dust, and returned sinter fines etc.) are converted into a particular form of agglomerate.
