Improving sinter quality and sinter plant productivity by mixing and moisturizing iron ore raw materials in winter, and rationalizing lime distribution between the charging department and the homogenization stockpile

Increasing the specific productivity of sintering machines

TASKS

Drum mixer model
Development and adaptation of a mathematical model of the drum mixer to analyze the influence of raw material moisture, rotation frequency, and drum filling degree on the mixing process.
Moisture testing of iron ore raw materials with lime
A series of industrial tests on fluctuations in moisture and chemical composition of moistened iron ore raw materials with 0-10 mm fraction lime prior to the stockpile.
Seasonal moisture management recommendations
Development of recommendations for managing iron ore raw material moisture before the homogenization stockpile, considering the rational distribution of 0-10 mm fraction lime during winter and summer periods.

RESULT

Increase in sinter plant productivity by 1.5%
