Abstract. Tumble Strength (TS) of iron ore sinter, affected by numerous factors, is considered as a vital performance to assess sinter quality for blast furnace (BF) iron-making. For the sake of providing a credible manipulative strategy of TS in sinter production, we built a mathematical model using artificial neural network, the so-called …

Until the 1950s of the last century, the oxidized iron ores that were loaded into the blast furnace had granulometries within 10 and 120 mm. However, the depletion of high-grade iron ore sources has made necessary the utilization of concentration processes with the purpose of enriching the iron ore. Because of these processes, a fine …

DRI production. Direct reduction of iron is the removal of oxygen from iron ore or other iron bearing materials in the solid state, i.e. without melting, as in the blast furnace. The reducing agents are carbon monoxide and hydrogen, coming from reformed natural gas, syngas or coal. Iron ore is used mostly in pellet and/or lumpy form.
