This document discusses pellets, which are spherical balls made from iron ore fines that are used as a feed material in blast furnaces. Some key points include:
- Pellets have good physical properties that make them suitable for mechanical transportation over long distances. They also have excellent metallurgical properties similar to or better than lump iron ore.
- Using pellets in ironmaking can reduce CO2 emissions by up to 44 million tonnes per year compared to using sinters. This is due to reductions in mining, transportation, agglomeration and steelmaking emissions.
- Increasing the proportion of pellets in a blast furnace burden can improve gas utilization by 4% and reduce co

Chemical, mineralogical and metallurgical characterization of goethite rich i...IJARIIT
In this paper the influence of structural water present in goethite rich ore fines on sinter properties like mean size, RI,
RDI, TI, AI and microstructure were studied. For this three plant sinters with different basicities (A1, A2 and A3) were
experimentally produced varying the raw mix. From the study on variable basicity, it is found that increased basicity has good
effects on the sinter properties. The desired norms of metallurgical properties for good quality sinter required for large size blast
furnace met with increased tumbler index and decreased abrasion index. The RI is also better in highly fluxed sinter A3 and the
RDI is low. All these are happening due to availability of more free lime and porosity. The mean-size of sinter also increases
with increase of basicity. The reducibility index and RDI of sinter A2 and A3 appear to be similar although there is a variation
in chemistry and basicity, this may be attributed to use of more micro-fines in raw material of sinter A3. The specific consumption
of coke rate is highest for sinter A3 is also due to more micro-fines in raw materials. From the microstructure it is found that in
sinter A1 more magnetite and less ferrites are developed in comparison to A2 and A3. The silicoferrites of calcium and
aluminium (SFCA) developed in sinter A2 and A3 are acicular in structure which provides better strength to the sinter. Also the
porosity is more in case of A2 and A3 which can accelerate the reducibility process.

Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop.

Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.

3. PELLETS IN IRON & STEEL MAKING-how Pellets contribute to
reduction in CO2emmission
• Considering 100 Million Tonnes of Steel production & 85 Million Tonnes of Pellet
production per year, following CO2 emissions can be reduced per year.
• 1)Mining–As perFIMI,around100 million tonnes of iron ore fines stocks are available in
our country.Existing Iron ore Beneficiation units shall use these fines’dumps,which
inturn reduce further mining & reduction in CO2 emission by
0.09Mil.Tonnes(0.9KgCO2/tX100Mil.Tonnes)
• 2)Pipeline–Around 40MTPA Iron ore slurry is being transported through underground
pipe line from various Beneficiation Plants to respective Pellet Plants.It reduces CO2
emission by 1.14Mil.Tonnes((32.2-3.8)KgCO /tX40Mil.Tonnes)per annum comparing to
2
emission by 1.14Mil.Tonnes((32.2-3.8)KgCO2/tX40Mil.Tonnes)per annum comparing to
road transport.
• 3)Agglomeration–85MTPAIron ore pellet production will reduce CO2 emission by
16.2Mil.Tonnes((220-30)KgCO2/tX85Mil.Tonnes)per annum comparing to sintering
process.
• 4)Iron & SteelMaking–By use of 85MTPA Iron ore pellets for iron & steel making will
reduce CO2 emission by 26.7Mil.Tonnes((1255- 941)KgCO2/tX85Mil.Tonnes)per annum
comparing to the use of sinters.
• In total; around 44 Million Tonnes of CO2 emission per year can be reduced by use of
pellets.

• Pellets are small and hard iron ore balls. Their diameter
is usually 10–16 mm. They are hot-bonded in order to
have sufficient mechanical strength.
• Some additives are often used in order to meet blast

• The most common pellet types for iron making purposes
are: acid pellets (B2 < 0.5), basic or fluxed pellets (0.9 <
B2 < 1.3) using limestone or dolomite as an additive, and
olivine pellets using olivine as the fluxing additive.
• In order to produce high quality pellets with good
reducibility and superior softening and melting
properties, certain additives are necessary. The most
common fluxing materials for iron ore pellet production
are limestone (CaCO3), dolomite (Ca,Mg(CO3)2) and
olivine (Mg2SiO4), but sometimes magnesite (MgCO3) is
also used.
• Additives are used not only to enhance slag formation,
but also to improve softening and melting properties and
to enhance the gaseous reduction of the burden

8. By increasing the pellets from 0 to 28% following effects are observed in the Blast Furnace
The increase in pellet per cent has promoted the uniform distribution of burden
materials and has led to effective utilization of BF gas which has resulted in
improving the gas utilization by 4%.
The cohesive zone where ferrous burden softens and melts is lowered by increasing
the pellet proportion in the burden mixture. The above burden probe temperatures
have sinked at the centre of the BF with high pellet operation, which represents the
lowering of the cohesive zone root.
Under high pellet operation, the position of cohesive zone has greatly affected the
gas flow pattern and has resulted in the improvement in gas utilization. Moreover, it
has enabled the reduction in coke rate by 10 kg/ thm with the increase in the pellet
proportion in the burden mixture.
The improved gas utilization has also eliminated the operational nuances of high
top gas temperature. It is observed that the top gas temperature is reduced by 30 C
when pellet per cent in the burden mixture is increased up to 28%.
The CWI is maintained between 2.2 and 2.4, to ensure improved furnace
performance under high pellet operation. The gas permeability is increased, and it
means the permeability resistance has decreased with the increase in the pellet per
cent in the burden mixture.

10. Changes made on blowing parameters with increasing pellet quantity
and trend of changes made in blast humidity and coal injection rate
with increasing pellet quantity on blowing parameters
akmistrymistry@gmail.com,8895500177,9968605977
12. Physical and economic attributes of Pellets
shows the average reduction-swelling indices of
the whole eight-pellet
sample consisting of three grades of magnetically
classified olivine pellets and the acid1 pellets as a
function of the average reduction degree under
different reducing conditions.
The figure indicates that sulphur in the reducing
gas results in the smaller volume of the pellets
after reduction, and large amounts of potassium
lead to a larger volume of the pellets after
reduction when compared to the reference
test without additional gases. The largest pellet
swelling was noticed in the “High- K” test, the RSI
value being 10.5 vol-%.
akmistrymistry@gmail.com,8895500177,9968605977
13. However, normal swelling can be considered advantageous for the reduction process due to the increased porosity of the pellets (Singh & Björkman 2004).
Under certain conditions, for example in the presence of alkalis, the swelling can become excessive. This coincides with the low compression strength of this
structure, with the possibility of generating fines (Geerdes et al. 2015).
Abnormal swelling occurs during the transformation of wüstite to metallic iron in the latter stages of reduction and is generally believed to be caused by the
growth of iron whiskers during reduction of wüstite to metallic iron.
Swelling can be categorized into normal swelling, up to 20% in volume, and abnormal, i.e. catastrophic swelling, which may exceed 400% in volume at worst.
Normal swelling of up to 20 vol-% occurs during the transformation of the pellets from hematite to magnetite in the initial stages of reduction.
Pellets, in contrast to sinter and lump ores, can have the tendency to swell during reduction. Generally a volume increase of over 20%, measured according to
ISO 4698, is seen as critical.
However, normal swelling can be considered advantageous for the reduction process due to the increased porosity of the pellets (Singh & Björkman 2004).

15. ADVANTAGES OF USING PELLETS AS A BLAST FURNACE FEED
1) Minimum closure of pores by fusion or slagging, pellets show very good reducibility due to high micro porosity.
2) Spherical (Egg) shaped and small uniform size (10-20 mm) gives ver/ good bed permeability.
3) More accessible surface per unit weight and more iron per unit of furnace volume because of high bulk density 3-3.5 tonnes/m3 larger surface and
increased time of residence per unit weight of iron give better and longer gas/ solid contact and improved heat exchange.
4) High iron content and more uniform chemical composition because of fine grinding. Hence lower flux and fuel requirement in the furnace, which lowers
the slag volume.
5) High softening temperature, 1200° to 13 50°C with narrow range; Dolomitized pellets have a softening temperature about 80°C higher than the
corresponding limy pellets.
6) Heat consumption is much less than that for sintering.
7) High strength-average compression strength is about 150-250 Kg or more for acid pellets.
8) Easy handling, e.g. by pneumatic method.
9) Ideal for direct reduction processes.
10) Acid pellets are stronger than fluxed sinter. Reducibility of fluxed pellets is higher than that of fluxed sinter or acid pellets.
11) Fluxed pellets are more economical than fluxed sinters.
12) Alkali attack on fluxed pellets is less than that on acid pellets.

17. Revision of the pellet -Facts to optimise fuel in blast furnace
The early softening of the
acid pellet is due to melting
of fayalite at 1205 °C
This could be avoided
by adding MgO or an
appropriate amount of
CaO in relation to the
proportion of SiO2 to
the pelletizing blend.
Another potential
means to prevent
liquid formation would
be to decrease the
SiO2 content in the
iron burden materials
