Iron ore beneficiation: an overview
Dry processing of iron ore: In dry processing of iron ore, ROM is generally crushed below 40 mm through three-stage crushing and thus segregated by screening into 10–40 and −10 mm fractions. For softer ore, tumbler index is generally low and hence lump ore is crushed below 10 mm to produce fine product. Yield from the plants has …

Pelletizing Process
iron ore. His process involved grinding taconite to remove gangues and upgrading the iron ore (i.e., an ore beneficiation process). The resultant high-grade ore is in the form of fine particles, as small as 0.1mm or less, which are not suitable for sintering. This issue led to the use of pelletizing. Pelletizing plants are expected to play an
