Technology Development for Chromium Ore Agglomeration Using Bentonite

  • Published:
Metallurgist Aims and scope

The results of laboratory experiments and industrial tests into the effect of bentonite additives as a binder on the main sintering parameters and qualitative characteristics of chromium agglomerates are presented. Optimal proportions of bentonite additives that improve the pelletizing processes of agglomeration charge are determined along with the agglomeration process parameters that ensure the required quality of the final product.
