Journey of Iron Ore to TMT Bars

Beneficiated iron ore, coke, limestone and dolomite is then fed on top of the blast furnace. Hot air is then injected through the nozzles that are at the base of the furnace. This results in iron ore and sinter melting and collecting at the bottom of the furnace as a molten pool. It is the carbon and carbon monoxide in coke that helps in ...

Effect of limestone and dolomite flux on the quality of …

Owing to the depletion of high-grade iron ore quality, many steel plants over the world are now using pellets after beneficiation of low grade ores as blast furnace feed. For the effective utilization of low-grade iron ore resources (59–62% Fe) with high loss of ignition (LOI), mineralogical characteristics play the vital role to improve the process efficiency.

SAIL ROURKELA SINTER PLANT | PPT

It describes how iron ore fines, limestone, dolomite and other raw materials are blended and formed into nodules. These nodules are then processed through a sintering machine, where combustion of coke forms sintered agglomerates. The sinter is cooled, crushed, and screened before use as a raw material input for blast furnaces. Key aspects of ...
