Abstract

Sinter is considered to be half prepared burden for Blast Furnaces. Moreover the iron and steel industry is burdened with lot of industrial wastes which create disposal problem and also eats up the economy of the plant. Two of such materials are Blast Furnace dust containing eighty percent iron and Blast furnace sludge. These materials cannot be agglomerated as it is. It decreases the productivity of the sinter plant. In this experimental work pellets were made with blast furnace flue dust and blast furnace sludge in a laboratory disc pelletizer. These pellets were sintered along with iron ore fines and limestone fines. The reducibility of this sinter is as comparable with iron ore super flux pellets. In this paper the techno economics of the sinter making with ferrogeneous waste made pellets is described.
