Chemical, Physical and Morphological Changes of Sintering Dust by Mechanical Activation

  • Chapter
7th International Symposium on High-Temperature Metallurgical Processing

Abstract

Sintering dust has been regarded as an important secondary resource in a modern steel plant. Sintering dust was mechanically treated using different milling machines and experimental conditions in air atmosphere. The changes in phase constitution, particle size, specific surface area, particle morphology, and lattice parameters of activated sintering dust were determined. It was found that the agglomeration of the particles take place during extended dry milling with accessible pores for Nitrogen gas. The maximum specific BET surface area in the stirring wet grinding and planetary wet grinding increases to 43.06 and 46.45 m2/g after activated 360 min respectively. With the increasing of energy input, the intensity of diffraction peaks of dolomite and hematite gradually decreased. Furthermore, the previous phase almost disappeared eventually under any experimental conditions. In addition, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy indicates that organic matter and carbonate decompose easier than other phases, especially under stirring wet milling.
