Introduction Iron ore fines (size less than 6 mm) are created as a result of mining, crushing and processing large ore particles and they may stand for up to 50% of the total ore mined [1]. Iron ore fines need to be enlarged for better handling and transportation but also for increased permeability in the blast furnace.
There are several agglomeration processes including: briquetting, extrusion, nodulization, pelletizing and sintering, although pelletizing and sintering are the most widely used, and especially sintering process (70% blast furnace load).
1. Introduction. Briquetting is an important process that is used to recycle and utilize the fine particles of steel plants as a product that provides suitable feed for metallurgical furnaces [1,2,3,4,5,6].The briquetting process avoids heating up, softening, and melting the fine particles, which can save a lot of fossil energy and decrease the environmental pollution.

Hot Briquetted Iron (HBI) is a compacted form of DRI that is manufactured with welldefined, consistent chemical and physical characteristics. HBI is manufactured to be shipped over great distances and melted in a variety of iron and steel processes. It is available throughout the year unlike scrap, which tends to have a collection season.
product arises. An alternative to agglomeration and pelletizing is the briquetting process. Briquetting is a process of mechanical and thermo mechanical briquette making that can be used for various raw materials, pieces with regular shape and size. Besides producing various ferrous alloys, iron ore can be used for other industries, for
approximately % of the total iron [2]. These fines cannot be directly charged back into the BF or steelmaking unit without conducting proper sorting, mixing, and agglomeration processes. Agglomeration via sintering and briquetting processes plays a vital role in the internal recycling of byproducts to recover iron, carbon, and lime.
and iron ore briquettes before and after heat treatment, fixed process variables were used, as listed in Table 4. Figure 1 displays the effect of the coal particle size on
An effective way to control the briquetting process is to change the content of the plasticizer and moisture. In the case of iron‑carbon mixtures, it is necessary to control simultaneously the content of carbonaceous material and the particle size of both components. The article provides detailed recommendations on results implementation.
Abstract. This review presents the usage of adhesives and binders for agglomeration of particle materials, including waste, in order to obtain strong bodies. The binding materials were classifi ed ...
Utilization of iron coke hot briquette (ICHB), prepared by carbonizing coaliron ore composite agglomerate, is considered as an effective countermeasure to achieve low carbon emission blast furnace (BF) ironmaking. ICHB shows high reactivity and thereby presents low postreaction strength, which could have serious impact on the permeability of this paper, the effects of coal and iron ore ...
Composite briquettes or pellets consisting of iron ore, carbon, and a binder are a source of direct reduced iron (DRI). In the handling of green and reduced briquettes, high strength is important to minimize briquette breakdown. The use of charcoal as a source of carbon, rather than coal provides a way of introducing renewable carbon into the ironmaking process. Composite briquettes were made ...
A sketch of the Midrex process with a roller press for hot briquetting and without an attached EAF and a detailed description is provided in Lohmeier et al. Not all the iron that is supplied as iron ore to the Midrex plant leaves it as HBI. Ironcontaining material is removed from the process at several sites.
A traditional application for briquetting is the agglomeration of coal. Most applications of briquetting in the iron and steel industry involve waste materials, such as mill scale and process dusts, sludges, and filter cakes [27]. In the DR industry, a number of facilities briquette their hot DRI product to produce a higherdensity product for ...

Until the 1950s of the last century, the oxidized iron ores that were loaded into the blast furnace had granulometries within 10 and 120 mm. However, the depletion of highgrade iron ore sources has made necessary the utilization of concentration processes with the purpose of enriching the iron ore. Because of these processes, a fine granulometry is produced, and thus iron agglomeration ...
The briquetting process is the conversion of agricultural waste into uniformly shaped briquettes that are easy to use, transport, and store. The idea of briquetting is using materials that are unusable, due to a lack of density, and compressing them into a solid fuel of a convenient shape that can be burned like wood or charcoal. The briquettes ...

when designing the briquetting process. For example, it is necessary to take into account the change in yield during briquette transportation after briquetting. These dependences are also necessary for formulating and solving problems of pressing/briquetting of finely dispersed materials, including iron ore concentrate with coke screenings.
