The pelletization process is the primary consumer of binders in the iron ore industry. The selection of an appropriate binder type and dosage is of critical importance in producing good quality pellets at a reasonable price. Binders accomplish two very important functions in iron ore pelletization: .

Iron ore pellets are largely characterized by inherent physical and chemical properties of ore as well as pelletizing conditions including induration time, induration temperature, etc. These parameters essentially vary with types of ores. The production of high-quality pellets from hematite ore is challenging because of high level of fineness …

At present around 6–7% of iron ore slimes, out of total production, are being generated and accumulated at iron ore mine sites of National Mineral Development Corporation Limited, India. The accumulated slimes of finer size and relatively inferior grade should be utilized in an economical way for sustainable mining. These slimes can be …

DR Pellet Size Exceeds BF Pellet Size. DR pellets: >50 % + 12.5 mm vs. BF: 9.5 x 12.5 mm target. Benefits of larger pellets : Increase in permeability, increased yield ( fewer smaller pellets degrading into fines), reduced clustering tendency (with a decrease in contacting surface area) Drawbacks of larger pellets :

Even though the use of bentonite in iron ore pelletizing is essential, it is also a problem due to its adverse effects, caused by the impurities introduced with bentonite, on iron-steel economy.

The term iron ore pellet refers to he thermally agglomerated material formed by heating a variable mixture of iron ore, limestone, olivine, bentonite, dolomite, and miscellaneous iron bearing materials in the range of 1,250 deg C to 1,350 deg C. Iron ore pellets can be made from beneficiated or run of mine iron ore fines.

Iron ore pellets not only have excellent metallurgical and mechanical properties but are also essential raw materials for improving iron and steel smelting in the context of the increasing global depletion of high-grade iron ore resources. ... Organic polymers, as important additive components for the production of high-quality pellets, …

When the ratio of boron iron concentrate is increased to 50%, the strength of the preheated pellet is reduced to 512 N/P. Addition of more than 80% boron iron concentrate will decrease the compressive strength of the preheated pellet below 400 …

The results showed that good quality wet, dry, preheated and fired pellets can be produced with combined binders (an organic binder plus a boron compound) when compared with …

Abstract Currently, the most common fluxing additive to pellets is dolomite CaCO3 · MgCO3, in which the magnesium oxide content can form from 17 to 22%. If the magnesium oxide in pellets increases, then it is necessary to increase the dolomite dosage. Thus, the iron content decreases, which entails a decrease in yield ratio at subsequent …

However, organic binders often lead to a decrease in pellet bursting temperature and pellet strength at high temperatures, which can be significantly improved by compounding with a small amount of low-cost inorganic minerals, such as bentonite, boron-containing compounds, sodium salts, and copper slag.

Journal Article: Production and blast-furnace smelting of boron-alloyed iron-ore pelletsProduction and blast-furnace smelting of boron-alloyed iron-ore pellets

Iron ore pellet is one of the critical burdens for the blast furnace process [1,2]. Owing to the increasing steel demand, iron ore pellets production has significantly expanded in recent years [3 ...

Abstract: Low grade iron ores with impurity gangue minerals containing silica and alumina must be upgraded to an acceptable level of iron content. Concentrates, due to their fine sizes, are not suitable to be directly charged to the iron-making processes such as the blast furnace or the DR-plant. Hence, an agglomeration technique should be applied to fine …

The iron ore production has significantly expanded in recent years, owing to increasing steel demands in developing countries. However, the content of iron in ore deposits has deteriorated and low-grade iron ore has been processed. The fines resulting from the concentration process must be agglomerated for use in iron and steelmaking. …
