An alternative route of magnetite processing involving the formation of CWF (CaFe 3 O 5 /calcio-magnetite) phase in lime-magnetite pellets (LMPs) was proposed in the previous paper.

In the magnetite iron ore pelletization process, oxidation of magnetite followed by sintering of the oxidized magnetite (hematite) is desirable. Optimum preheating time & temperature and roasting time & temperature is required to get the desired properties of the pellets with magnetite, hematite, and hematite–magnetite blend. In order to …

tion degree of pellet obtained by preheated process is just over 80%. In that case, it only needs 10 min for preheating the artificial magnetite pellet to meet such requirement, which indicates that the artificial pellets possess the excellent oxidation performance. 3.2 Reaction order of the oxidation of artifi-cial magnetite pellet

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. The fines resulting from the concentration process must be agglomerated for use in iron and steelmaking. …
