5. Improving Availability of the Pelletization Process
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för ekonomi, teknik, konst och samhälleAbstract : The Grate-Kiln-Cooler process is a commonly used method of sintering during iron ore pelletization, where the pellets are formed, dried, and hardened. The pellets are oxidized in the rotating Kiln, turning magnetite (Fe3O4) to hematite (Fe2O3), making the pellets attain suitable metallurgical attributes for further processing. READ MORE
