limestone fluxed pellets

Iron ore fluxed pellets and their physical properties ...

1985-6-1 · The moisture content of iron ore fluxed pellets was calculated proportionally according to the amount of water required by pure iron ore and pure limestone pellets (13.5% and 16.5% respectively). Therefore, a fluxed charge containing 10% limestone needs 13.8% water and a charge containing 20% limestone needs 14.1% water content.

2015-8-10 · Limestone fluxed pellets are highly porous and therefore very reducible but physically weaker than non-fluxed ones. The CCS distribution (see Fig. 13) is broad and the standard deviation is high for both pellet grades; therefore, the average CCS value alone is not a proper indicator of the mechanical properties of the pellets.
