SINTER PLANT

Sinter is a hard porous produced by incipient fusion combustion developed within the mass itself. It is agglomerated from the iron ore fines, limestone and dolomite fines, flue dust and coke fines.
Sinter plant plays a vital role in the modern steel making industries. It has following advantages:
  1. It has sufficient strength, porous giving more surface area for reaction, partial (incipient) fusion leaves iron ores.
  2. Utilization of all iron ore fines which have increased due to mechanization of iron ore mining, 40% of iron ore fines is produced during mining.
  3. Utilization of all waste materials like coke breeze, mill scale, carbide sludge, lime dust, flue dust.
