Agglomeration in Metallurgy

Abstract

In the sintering, a preliminary prepared mixture of charge components and solid fuel is being burnt in air flow filtered layer (vacuum sintering). Let’s describe the phenomenon of sintering technology.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Gangue-part of the mineral composition of ore or concentrate that does not contain the main element (in the case of iron ore materials—iron).

  2. 2.

    The reactivity of solid fuels is determined by a special test on the rate constant of interaction with CO2 at a temperature of 950–1100 °C [10].

  3. 3.

    Heat transfer in the sintering layer can be viewed in various models: in a fixed bed, as a cross heat transfer, as a countercurrent heat transfer in the case when the origin of coordinates is placed on the maximum temperature horizon.

  4. 4.

    Here and further “gas” is understood as a gas phase (it is both air and sintering gas).

  5. 5.

    There are different concepts of “porosity”: fraction of the free space in a single particle or a single aggregate of micro particles (for example, a granule of a pelletized charge or pellet), and as a fraction of free space in a set of macro-particles (layer). Denoted by the same symbol ε.

  6. 6.

    Index KS is an index reflecting the gas-dynamic resistance of the sinter, determined in a special experiment on its softening-reduction, integrated in the temperature range from 1000 to 1600 °C [62].

  7. 7.

    In Russia, sinter plants work with a very high proportion in the mixture of finely ground concentrates (up to 100%), Fe content in fluxed sinters is 55–59%, SiO2—5.5–9%.

  8. 8.

    From the general considerations of the sintering theory, we have a relation for the speeds of the belt movement v and the filtration rate ω: v = (L/h) · K · (Cg/Cp) · ω, where Cg, Cp is the heat capacities of the filtered gas and charge; K—coefficient.

  9. 9.

    European enterprises [54] practice supplying reagents (activated carbons, coke, coal, specially prepared carbon materials to the gas pipeline of waste gas before the electrostatic precipitator with a flow rate that provides 80 mg/m3 of carbon in the gas flow and 200 mg/m3 inert additive (limestone).
