Iron ore sinter plants are energy-intensive components of integrated iron and steel production (see Table 1), where the iron ore fines (<5 mm) are converted into larger (>5 mm) lump sinter cakes with greater gas permeability, which are the most important burden materials for iron making in blast furnaces (BFs) [7].The main process is shown in Fig. 2 and described …
situation will generate heterogeneous sinter chemistry. The smaller sized iron ore fines (<100 mesh) shall reduce the permeability of sinter bed and this in turn will generate more sinter return-fines and thus productivity of sinter machine is affected. So the ideal size distribution of iron ore fines must be 10 to 0.15 mm and mean size of the ...
Sinter Pot Test of Particle Size Matching of Coke Breeze and Iron Ore Fines The sintering test was carried out in the following conditions: sintering pot size, ϕ300 mm; sintering bed thick, 850 mm; ignition temperature, 1050 °C; ignition time, 3 min; ignition negative pressure, − 12 kPa; and sintering negative pressure, − 16.5 kPa.
The sintering process produces iron ore agglomeration of size 10–40 mm with better reducibility values than lumps. Utilization of a higher proportion of quality agglomerates in the burden increases the productivity of the blast furnace. The sintering process increases the productivity and reduces the requirement of fuel, flux, and operation time.
The iron ore production has significantly expanded in recent years, owing to increasing steel demands in developing countries. However, the content of iron in ore deposits has deteriorated and low-grade iron ore has been processed.

Abstract. Iron ore sintering is an extremely complex process involving fuel combustion to generate heat and reducing gases like CO. This heat allows physicochemical, solid and solid–liquid reactions to form liquids of complex components as fuel particles are consumed and cooling processes allow the formation of solid mineral phases.
The size of iron ore affects the sintering properties. An increase in the size of iron ore promotes the productivity of sinter, but can reduce the tumbler strength slightly and save a little coke. The mineralogy of sinter can more easily be predicted from its chemical composition than its physical and chemical properties.
