Luossavaara-Kiirunavaara AB (LKAB) produces yearly about 16 million tonnes of iron ore pellets as high-quality raw material for use in steelmaking. Pelletization begins with the grinding and cleaning of the iron ore to meet the desired chemical quality. ... while increasing the water content results in an opposite effect [1]. Control of the ...

They reported that boron has beneficial effect at all stages of metal production and the quality of pellets was increased (Malysheva et al., 1996). It was reported that the presence of boron compounds in pellets is beneficial for pellet quality and the presence of boron element in iron–steel product is beneficial for both blast …

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, …

The new boron-bearing iron ore concentrate/coal composite pellet reduction and melting separation technology has been proposed by the authors. 10–12 However, the fundamental aspects of the new process, such as the reduction behaviour of the composite pellet, melting separation of the reduced pellet and crystallisation of the boron-rich slag, …

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 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 …

A brief introduction to recent developments in iron ore pelletizing is provided in this chapter, including the world output of fired pellets, pellet production processes, preparation of pellet ...

Malysheva et al. (1996) studied the effect of boron on the quality of iron ore pellets. ... The Effect of Calcined Colemanite Addition on the Mechanical Strength of Magnetite Pellets Produced with ...

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 …

An attempt has been made to assess the physical properties of pellets produced from Itakpe iron ore concentrates. The results indicate that Itakpe pellets have properties comparable with ...

There are four stages involved in the production of iron ore pellets. These stages consist of (i) raw material preparation, (ii) formation of green balls or pellets, (iii) induration of the pellets, and (iv) cooling, …

The iron-ore pelletizing plants at the ore harbour Tubarao near Vitoria/Brazil, commissioned in 1970 and 1973, with a capacity of 2 million and 3 million tonnes/yr of pellets respectively, are ...

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: .

In order to provide theoretical guidance and direction by summarizing the research progress of organic binders in iron ore pellets. The structures and properties of four common organic binders were revealed based on the introduction of the molecular structure model of ideal organic binders. The effect of viscosity and water absorption on the ...

Pre-reduction of the boron-bearing iron ore concentrate is one of the important steps of the pyrometallurgical boron and iron separation process. In the …

Effect of Boron Iron Concentrate on the Strength of Preheated Iron Ore Pellets. February 2021. DOI: 10.1007/978-3-030-65241-8_8. In book: Materials …

Ludwigite is a multi-element coexisting iron ore. By changing the amount of ludwigite added during the preparation of pellets, the effect of ludwigite on the metallurgical properties of pellets was studied, including compressive strength, reduction swelling rate, and metallurgical properties. The effect of ludwigite addition on the softening–melting …

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.

The iron and steel industry is the main driving force for the development of any country [], is an important symbol of the national economic level and comprehensive national strength, and has an important position in economic development.Resource problem is a common challenge facing the world iron and steel industry [], and pellet is …

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.
