Twenty different iron ore pellets, consisting primarily of Hematite (Fe2O3) phase, were subjected to 'simulated' reduction studies. A wide range of reduction time periods, Rt of 122 to 211 minutes, were obtained. Detailed microstructural characterizations were then conducted at different locations of ten selected specimens. The Rt did not …
As an important raw material in ferrous metallurgy, the chemical indexes and metallurgical properties of iron ore pellets play a decisive role in ensuring the quality of iron and steel products.

International Standard ISO 3082 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 102, Iron ore and direct reduced iron, Subcommittee SC 1, Sampling.
The influence of different parameters on the reduction rates of iron ore pellets: a) the reduction temperature and the fraction of CO in the reducing gas, b) the reduction temperature and the size of a pellet, c) the amount of lime and silica additives in a pellet, and d) the number of pellets.
A solution to these shortcomings is continuous monitoring and accurate measurement through a fully-automatic approach. In this paper, a method using image processing technique is proposed and verified for estimating size …
Evaluation of spherical fitting as a technique for sizing iron ore pellets is performed. Size measurement of pellet in industry is usually performed by manual sampling and sieving techniques. Automatic on-line analysis of pellet size would allow non-invasive, frequent and consistent measurement. Previous work has used an assumption that pellets are …
Iron ore green pellets are widely used in steel industry. In the manufacturing of green pellets in disc pelletizer, the pellet moisture (PM) should be frequently monitored to guarantee product…
Size analysis of iron ore pellets is performed by the sampling system validated in the previous column, a linear cross stream sampler collecting primary samples every five minutes. The complete sampling system is automated with subsequent rotary mass reduction sub-sampling and automatic size analysis, presenting results …
Automatic Ore Sampling Systems. The correct sampling of ores is a subject of far greater importance than is usually conceded to it. Of the little which has been published on this subject, the recent paper, …
Variographic characterization of process sampling makes it possible to assess all combined sampling and analytical errors from only 40–60 routine analytical values. The objective of this study is to evaluate total sampling variability in relation to process variability in the concentrating and pelletizing process sampling at LKAB.
The methods are applicable to all iron ores, whether natural or processed (e.g. concentrates and agglomerates, such as pellets or sinters).
This paper presents research to automate image capture and analysis of entire cross-sections of baked iron ore pellets to characterize proportions of magnetite, hematite, and other components. The presented results cover: semi-automated image acquisition of entire pellets, separation of pellet and epoxy and calculation of total …
Iron ore is one of the two essential inputs for producing direct reduced iron (DRI); the other being natural gas or another hydrocarbon fuel that can be reformed to create a reducing gas rich in CO and H2. Although direct …
Validation experiment. The experimental validation reported here was executed at a sampling system collecting the final product from an iron ore pellet plant (i.e. process control samples—not commercial samples). The sampling system consists of a linear cross-stream sampler, Figure 1, collect-ing primary increments of iron ore pellets in ...
To perform the iron ore pellet reduction experiments, a single pellet was first sus- pended inside the nickel superalloy tube using a stainless-steel 304 wire, followed by heat- ing of the furnace at a constant rate of 7 °C/min under a continuous flow of N2gas at 200 cm3/min.
What is iron ore pellet. Iron ore pellets are made by adding a small amount of additives to the fine ore powder (-200 mesh, that is, the ore powder with a particle size of less than 0.074mm accounts for more than 80%, and the specific surface area is more than 1500cm2/g), adding water to the pelletizer, relying on capillary force and mechanical ...
As an important raw material in ferrous metallurgy, the chemical indexes and metallurgical properties of iron ore pellets play a decisive role in ensuring the quality of iron and …
This method was developed to provide a uniform procedure, validated by collaborative testing, to facilitate comparisons of tests made in different laboratories. The results of this test have to be considered in conjunction with other tests used to evaluate the quality of iron ores as feedstocks for blast furnace and direct reduction processes.
