FLOFORM ™ Iron Ore Pelletization FLOFORM™ Iron Ore Pelletization Use of FLOFORM™ Pelletization is a tumble/growth agglomeration mechanism for solid particulates, which must comply with several key points from the strength of the liquid bond during the seeding, the control of the water migration during the balling to the solid bonds resistance during the indurating stage.
Pelletization is the only answer to a major question of preserving our precious iron ore and using it wisely. Pellets are uniformely sized, with purity of 63% 68% contributing to faster reduction and high metallization rates.
Iron ore pellets are spheres of typically to be used as raw material for blast furnaces. The process of pelletizing combines mixing of the raw material, forming the pellet and a thermal treatment baking the soft raw pellet to hard spheres. The raw material is rolled into a ball, then fired in a kiln to sinter the particles into a hard sphere.
HPS feed consists of iron ore as pellet feed fines, return fines and iron and steel work remnants, filter dust, additives and binders like limestone, dolomite, bentonite and coal dust. These micro pellets are fed onto a sinter machine to produce sinter cake, which is then broken down and smelted in a blast furnace.
The iron ore and additives with given moisture content are pelletized (formed into small balls referred to as green balls or green pellets) in a balling device. This could be a balling drum or a balling disk Pellets of various sizes exiting the balling device are discharged afterward on a deck of rollers, the roller screen,...
Iron Ore Pelletizing Bentonite The need for iron ore pellets is directly connected to the steel production industry. Through the pelletizing process, iron ore fines are converted into spherical pellets, which are then suitable as feed material in blast furnaces for pig iron production.
The Symposium on Iron Ore Pelletizing focuses on the topics such as feed preparation covering grinding, flotation and filtration, balling, including new binders, additives, covering conventional and alternative source, induration, including machine design and alternative energy sources, and much more.
Iron Ore Pelletization is an agglomeration process of the disintegrated Iron Ore fines into Iron ore Pellet which is suitable for the utilization of downstream process of Iron Making. The Hira Process is the Ore ground to the required fineness through wet grinding process mainly by Ball Mills and the slurry is dewatered by pressure filtration to produce the Iron Ore Concentrate.
Iron Ore Pelletization Plant A collective genius to deliver innovation solution, tailored to unique needs backed by our proprietary tools, established methodologies and experienced professional aided us into product integration in the field of Iron Ore Pelletization.
Most iron ore produced is processed into iron ore pellets. After being crushed into powder, the ores go through several mechanical processes to eliminate various minerals and other waste materials, leaving a concentration of iron mineral dust. Adding sodium Bentonite to the iron mineral dust along with water allows the Bentonite to bind with the iron mineral dust to form solid iron pellets.
Agglomeration technologies such as Pelletization / Sintering have to be added to Steel Plant so that concentrates can be used as feed material. This paper will give an insight about the potential of pelletization technology of iron ore.

Finely particulate iron ore is pelletized using finely particulate, free flowing, anionic water soluble synthetic polymer having intrinsic viscosity of from 3 to 16 as binder.
Iron oxide pellets are one of the main feed sources for blast furnaces or direct reduction processes of the iron and steel making industry. Pelletizing is the first step in the production of these pellets. The process basically consists of mixing finely ground iron ore

With an ore body 4km long, 80m thick and reaching a depth of 2km, LKAB's Kiruna is the world's largest, most modern underground iron ore mine. Since mining began at the site over 100 years ago, LuossavaaraKiirunavaara AB (LKAB) has produced over 950Mt of ore, yet only one third of the original ore body has been extracted.
