Abstract
Carbon monoxide is the major hazardous component in flue gas exhausting from the iron ore sintering. This study aims to reduce the CO emission by changing the sinter parameters by sintering pot tests; specifically, the sinter quality, CO concentration, and total emission in sintering flue gas were analyzed in detail. The sinter strength properties, including the shatter index and the tumble index, are analyzed by the sintering pot test and the sintering flue gas discussion. The results show that the CO emission can be suppressed by modifying the sinter parameters, such as carbon content, coke breeze and coal breeze ratio, water addition, and sintering negative pressure. The good sinter parameters with the lower CO emission are 2.8% carbon content and 7.5% water in the sintering mixture. A higher coke breeze to coal breeze ratio, or only coke breeze fuel in the sinter mixture, is beneficial for the lower CO emission with a negative fan pressure of −12 kPa.
