Basicity has an important effect on the behavior of high-chromium vanadium-titanium magnetite (HCVTM) sinter. The effect of basicity on sintering, reduction, and softening-melting properties was investigated in an experiment-scale sinter pot. The results showed that with the basicity increasing from 1.7 to 2.5, the vertical sinter speed, the productivity, the particle size, the reduction disintegration index (RDI), and the reducibility index (RI) increased. The yield increased first and then decreased, while the tumble index (TI) had the opposite trend. The perovskite content increased first and then stabilized, and the silico-ferrite of calcium and aluminum (SFCA) increased from the basicity of 2.3. The HCVTM sinter had a better tendency of the softening behavior with the basicity increase. In addition, the melt droplet comprehensive index S increased, which indicated that the increase in basicity negatively affected the droplet performance. As the basicity increased, the comprehensive index value increased. Considering the adverse effect of basicity on softening-melting properties, the best recommended value is 2.3.

Titanium Magnetite

High-chromium vanadium-titanium magnetite (HCVTM) in the Hongge region has been used as an essential mineral resource in ironmaking. The effects of MgO on sintering performance and metallurgical properties were investigated by sintering pot tests, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS). HCVTM sinters with varying MgO contents (2.7–3.5%), which was achieved by adding dolomite, were tested for yield, strength, reduction degradation index (RDI), reduction index (RI), and softening-melting properties. The productivity and the comprehensive index were evaluated. The results show that yield and productivity increased, while the vertical sintering speed and the tumbler index (TI) initially increased then decreased with the increase of MgO content. The mineral structure of HCVTM sinter changed from a non-uniform state to a uniform state with increased MgO content. Most of the Mg2+ entered the magnetite lattice, while a small amount entered the perovskite and the calcium silicate. The increase of MgO content improved RDI and softening-melting properties while reducing RI. The best recommended amount of MgO was 3.3% from the comprehensive index.

AbstractBased on the fundamental characteristics of high chromium vanadium-titanium magnetite (HCVTM), the effects of roasting temperature and roasting time on the phase transition and oxidation consolidation during the oxidation were investigated systematically. It was shown that the oxidation of HCVTM pellet was not a simple process but complex. With increasing roasting temperature and time, the compressive strength of oxidized pellet was improved. The phase transition during oxidation was hypothesized to proceed as follows: (1) Fe3O4 → Fe2O3; (2) Fe2.75Ti0.25O4 → Fe9TiO15 + FeTiO3 → Fe9TiO15 + Fe2Ti3O9; (3) Fe2VO4 → V2O3 → (Cr0.15V0.85)2O3; (4) FeCr2O4 → Cr2O3 → Cr1.3Fe0.7O3 + (Cr0.15V0.85)2O3. The oxidation consolidation process was divided into three stages: (1)oxidation below 1,173 K; (2) recrystallization consolidation at 1,173 – 1,373 K; (3) particle refining recrystallization-consolidation by the participation of liquid phase at 1,373 – 1,573 K. To obtain the HCVTM oxidized pellet with good quality, the rational roasting parameters included a roasting temperature of 1,573 K and a roasting time of 20 min.

As a raw material, Indonesia vanadium-titanium sinters are being applied to the blast furnace process for iron making in the typical iron and steel plant. In order to keep the health running of blast furnace process, in this work we have investigated the softening and melting properties of Indonesia vanadium-titanium sinters. We found that the content of vanadium-titanium magnetite in sinter is correlated with the softening and melting ranges for those sinters considered here. With the increasing of the vanadium-titanium magnetite in sinter, the starting softening temperature increases gradually and the final softening temperature increases as well, thereby the softening range becomes narrow. Both starting and final melting temperatures begin to ascent, and the variation of melting range is not obvious. In addition, we also found that the coke is wetted by the molten slag and iron. From the viewpoint of blast furnace process, the softening and melting zone has to move downward. In this zone of blast furnace the contact area of solid-liquid phase will get larger because of the close contract among the molten slag, iron and coke. On one hand, this kind of behavior can definitely speed up the reduction of iron oxide. On the other hand, it simultaneously worse the ventilation properties and affect the normal running of air flow, because a lot of iron and slag can not be got smoothly into the hearth through coke layer.
