Abstract 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 lowgrade iron ore has been processed. The fines resulting from the concentration process must be agglomerated for use in iron and steelmaking.

In the magnetite iron ore pelletization process, oxidation of magnetite followed by sintering of the oxidized magnetite (hematite) is desirable. Optimum preheating time temperature and roasting time temperature is required to get the desired properties of the pellets with magnetite, hematite, and hematitemagnetite blend. In order to utilize the magnetite resources in a current ...

Iron ore pellets are commonly used as iron burden materials in blast furnaces. The pellets are small and hard iron ore balls. Their diameter is usually 1016 mm. The pellets are hotbonded in order to provide sufficient mechanical strength. A high iron content and a low gangue content is favourable for blast furnace pellets . Additives are ...

Recently, the grade of iron ore deposits has deteriorated and further development of low grade deposits is desired. Presently, the most effective and often followed route taken to utilize such deposits is the provision of beneficiation plants for upgrading iron ore and pelletizing plants for agglomerating.

At DRplants today, natural gas or syngas is used to reduce iron ore pellets into porous sponge iron. This process generates heat as the pellet is reduced. However, simple calculations show that by changing the natural gas into hydrogen, energy is consumed during the reduction process [4], [5]. The difference between the enthalpies for reducing ...

Production of pellet as a desirable feedstock for ironmaking furnaces has exceeded 300 Mt per year in 2005, accounting for about 24% of the iron ore processed globally (UNCTAD, 2006). The production of iron ore pellets involves two major steps, forming the "green" pellets in rotary disks or drums, followed by their heat

Most iron ore exported from Australia is in the form of haematite, however magnetite ore found at Whyalla, which is magnetic, is more suited to direct reduction processes using hydrogen. The demonstration plant is capable of taking ore from the company's mines to produce around million tonnes of 70 percent iron magnetite ore annually.
