A number of the commercial iron ores were tested in a sinter pot to study the effect of iron ore composition on the sintering properties. In the sintering of individual iron ores, under the sinter controlled at the same levels of basicity, SiO 2 and MgO, the sintering properties varied with iron ore type greatly. The sinters made from the dense low alumina iron ores presented the …
Like other sintering processes, iron ore sintering converts iron ore fines of often − 8 mm sizing into larger agglomerates, namely, sinter, between 5 and 50 mm particle size, which possess the physical and metallurgical characteristics and gas permeability required for efficient blast furnace operation.As shown in Figure 14.1, iron ore sintering is carried out in three …
In contrast, iron ore 2# contains low iron grade of 58.09%, Al 2 O 3 content of 1.59% and high LOI content of 9.76%, resulting in the formation of larger pores and degradation of its sinter matrix strength. As with iron ore 6#, it is also a hematite ore with relatively high iron grade and low LOI content, which may present some positive effects ...

Sinter Feed Low Alumina, or SFLA will be one of the lowest alumina content traded ores and this is a good fit given the reduced availability of Chinese domestic concentrates, said Luiz Meriz, Vale's International S.A. Marketing Director, Iron Ore.
Iron Ore Sinter. Iron ore sinter or simply called sinter is usually the major component of a blast furnace iron bearing burden material. Sinter normally consists of various mineral phases produced by sintering of iron ore fines with …
In the present work laboratory sintering experiments have been carried out with iron ore fines of different alumina level (2.00 to 5.46 mass-%) to know the influence of alumina on mineralogy, productivity, physical and metallurgical properties of sinter prepared by the conventional and the selective granulation process.
Abstract. Alumina containing iron ore samples (0·7–5·5%Al 2 O 3) were sintered in a down draft sinter pot.The structures of the produced sinters were microscopically examined and the different phases developed were identified.

The roles of A1 2 O 3 and MgO on the evolution of phases in iron ore sinters have been investigated by simulated sintering in the laboratory using natural ores, commercial grade limestone and analytical grade A1 2 O 3 and MgO. A1 2 O 3 …
The product 'sinter' consists of a cellular mass of ore bonded in a slag matrix. The sinter mix, besides the ore fines, usually contains other materials like flue dust, return fines, limestone and/or dolomite etc., in order to control the properties of the product as well as to utilize industrial waste.
Mechanically, alumina possesses great hardness, resistan~e to abrasive wear and dimensional stability. The strength properties of ~i!1tered alumina are strongly influenced by the microstructure: porosity, grain size, pore size, second phases. In the application of alumina as cutting tools use is made of its special mechanical properties.
average, 1.6 tonne of iron ore is required either as lumps or sinters to produce one tonne of hot metal. The present day specifications of iron ore are . Physical Close sized lumps mostly (-40mm +10mm) {However, fines (-10mm) are also used after sintering}. Chemical High in Fe (65% Fe) content and low in alumina (preferably less than 2.5%)
Correlation between the mechanical properties of iron ore sinter and the chemical composition of the calcium aluminosilicoferrite Ca 2 (Ca,Fe,Mg) 6 (Fe,Si,Al) 6 O 20 (SFCA) sinter bonding phase was examined.

During the iron ore sintering process, two types of particles are present in the sinter bed: (1) fines, which are actively taking part in melting and the formation of secondary phases, and (2) coarse ores, which are partially interacting with the surrounding melt. The quality of the final sinter is particularly determined by the secondary phases and their bonding ability.
