Reduction of Iron Ore Pellets: A Microstructural Perspective?
Twenty different iron ore pellets, consisting primarily of Hematite (Fe2O3) phase, were subjected to 'simulated' reduction studies. A wide range of reduction time periods, Rt of 122 to 211 minutes, were obtained. Detailed microstructural characterizations were then conducted at different locations of ten selected specimens. The Rt did not relate with initial phase mix or …

Iron ore pelletization
Iron ore lump, sinter, and pellets comprise the main burden of modern blast furnaces. However, sinter and pellets are now the dominant blast furnace burden, because the natural lump supply has declined dramatically due to depletion of the world's high-grade competent iron ore resources. In addition, more iron ore concentrates are being produced ...
