Predictive models and operation guidance system for iron ore …
The dominant process adopted to produce iron ore pellets in China is the grate-kiln process [10–12]. The preheated pellets roll in the rotary kiln and can be sintered uniformly; therefore, it is known that the grate-kiln method yields a superior and more consistent pellet quality compared with the straight-grate process [13].Web
