Aug 10, 2015 In general, the main types of pellets for the purposes of making iron are acid, basic and fluxed. In order to produce high-quality pellets, certain additives are important. The most common fluxing materials for iron ore pellet production are limestone (CaCO 3), dolomite (Ca,Mg(CO 3) 2) and olivine (Mg 2 SiO 4), but sometimes magnesite (MgCO 3
One of the most common fluxing materials for iron ore pellet production is limestone, which is mainly calcium oxide (CaO). In this study, the effect of adding limestone on the metallurgical properties (reducibility, swelling, cracking, softening temperature, Low-Temperature Disintegration, Cold Crushing Strength) of acid iron ore pellets was

optimization of MgO (olivine) flux addition and basicity and finally used calcined lime in place of limestone in developing good quality iron ore pellets with combined flux. It is found that calcined lime fluxed pellet without bentonite and limestone shows very good dry compressive strength (3.5 kg/pellet
Addition of 1% C in pellet improves CCS of limestone fluxed pellets as well as calcined lime pellets both. However, this strength improvement is much higher in limestone fluxed pellet and it reaches up to the level of calcined lime fluxed pellet in identical conditions.
May 08, 2013 Limestone and lime products are used as fluxing material both in ironmaking and in steelmaking. Basically limestone is used as a slag former, while dolomite is used as a slag former, slag modifier and as a refractory material. The process of iron making is the reduction of iron ore to produce iron.
Dec 28, 2013 The term iron ore pellets refers to the thermally agglomerated substance formed by heating a variable mixture of iron ore, limestone, olivine, bentonite, dolomite and miscellaneous iron bearing materials in the range of 1250 deg C to 1350 deg C. Iron ore pellets are normally produced in two types of grades namely DRI grade and BF grade.

Sep 19, 2017 Green fluxed pellets of ~18 mm diameter were made by mixing 30% lime and iron ore fines with the addition of the optimum water content. Use of lime was restricted to 30% as beyond this the green strength of pellets decreases adversely (pellets basicity ~3.6).5 Fluxed pellets were hardened at 1473 K (1200°C) to achieve sufficient strength.

The moisture content of iron ore fluxed pellets was calculated proportionally according to the amount of water required by pure iron ore and pure limestone pellets (13.5% and 16.5% respectively). Therefore, a fluxed charge containing 10% limestone needs 13.8% water and a charge containing 20% limestone needs 14.1% water content.

A new fluxed pellet for use in iron-making is obtained by mixing and indurating about 1 to about 20%, by weight of the pellet, of ground melt shop slag fines with similarly ground iron ore concentrate, so as to achieve particular ranges of silica content, CaO/SiO 2 ratio, and MgO content. The melt shop slag fines have been considered a waste material, but contain significant slag and metal values.
