A composite additive for preparing
hematite concentrate
pellets comprises the following components:
humic acid,
calcium peroxide, and paigeite. During application, the composite additive is added which has a
mass percent of 0.5%-1.6% of the total
mass of the
hematite concentrates, and the finished product
pellets are obtained by pelletization, preheating, and
roasting. Compared with
pellets prepared by traditional technology, the
hematite pellets prepared by the composite additive of the invention have improved falling strength of the green pellets, and compression strength of the finished product pellets; the preheating temperature and
roasting temperature suitable for the pellets are reduced; both the preheating time and
roasting time are shortened; the TFe grade is increased by 0.8%-1.2%. The composite additive of the invention has reasonable component ratios, is easy to process and manufacture, has a low using amount and a low residual amount, can significantly improve the pelletability of hematite concentrates which are difficult to be palletized, can improve the green pellet quality, has good
heat stability, and can effectively reduce the preheating and roasting temperatures and shorten the preheating and roasting time of hematite concentrates. The composite additive of the invention is applicable to the production of oxidized pellets by hematites, and is especially applicable to the production of oxidized pellets by specularites. The composite additive of the invention is applicable to large-scale industrial production.
