Iron ore sintering is a material preparation process employed worldwide in the production of iron and steel. According to statistical data on pollution, sintering plants rank second in terms of toxic emissions, after the incineration of municipal solid waste ( Menad et al., 2006, Remus et al., 2013 ).
The process of sintering is a thermal operation involving melting and assimilation reactions. The first stage of the sintering process is the formation of the melt which involves the reaction between fine iron ore particles and fluxes. The initial melt is generated from adhering fines during heating via reaction between iron ore and fluxes.
The iron and steel industry, as the major sources of NOx emission, accounts for about 6% of the total NOx emissions of industry in China, 1,2) while the iron ore sintering process occupied approximately 50% of the total NOx emissions in the iron and steel industry. 3,4) Therefore, it is extremely urgent to reduce NOx emissions from the iron ore ...

The granulation of iron ore is an important process in the iron ore sintering. It strongly affects the permeability of sinter bed and then affects the productivity and properties of produced sinter such as strength and reducibility. The granulation ability of limonite ores was poor; they should be used with high granulation ability iron ores to ...
