Oxidation and roasting characteristics of artificial magnetite pellets

Compared with natural magnetite concentrate, artificial magnetite with more lattice defects and higher activity tends to be oxidized. And the artificial magnetite pellet at the temperature of 400 °C has the oxidation degree approaching to natural magnetite concentrate pellet fired at 1000 °C. Beside...

Description
Summary:Compared with natural magnetite concentrate, artificial magnetite with more lattice defects and higher activity tends to be oxidized. And the artificial magnetite pellet at the temperature of 400 °C has the oxidation degree approaching to natural magnetite concentrate pellet fired at 1000 °C. Besides, two kinds of pellets displayed quite different roasting characteristics. When preheated at the same temperature for the same period of time, natural magnetite concentrate pellet and artificial magnetite concentrate pellet need to be roasted at the temperature of 1100 °C and 1250 °C, respectively, for 25 min to reach the compressive strength of 3000 N per pellet. When roasted at the same temperature of 1200 °C, natural magnetite pellet and artificial magnetite pellet need to be roasted for 15 min and 30 min, respectively, to reach the compressive strength over 3000 N per pellet. It can be seen from the test that artificial magnetite pellet has a faster oxidation, resulting in the high porosity in the produced pellet, and it requires a roasting process at higher temperature for a longer time to reach the desired compressive strength for industrial production.
