Jan 07, 2014 Sodium-activated calcium bentonite is used as a binder in iron ore pellets and is known to increase strength of both wet and dry iron ore green pellets. In this article, the microstructure of bentonite in magnetite pellets is revealed for the first time using scanning electron microscopy.

Bentonite is commonly used in pelletting of iron ore. Bentonite plays an important role in using degradable iron ores with low grades upon pelleting. While activated calcium bentonites swell about 5-6 times of their volume, Sodium bentonites can swell up to 25-30 times. Swelling is directly influenced by the Enslin value required for the pellet.

Bentonite for iron-ore pelletizing. While interacting with the water, bentonite clay expands and becomes sticky. This property allows to effectively use it as a binder for the production of pellets from iron ore concentrate (wet, crushed iron ore that has been beneficiated). Pellets are used in blast-furnace redistribution and ...

Jul 11, 2018 Bentonite, an inorganic binder, has been the main binder used in the iron ore pelletizing process since the beginning of pellet production in the 1950s. Bentonite promotes the formation of ceramic bridges between particles, which can minimize the number of pellets that collapse during firing.

The physical and chemical properties such as particle size, montmorillonite content, swelling degree, water absorption, and blue absorption of A, B, and C bentonites were studied under laboratory conditions. The effects of adding different quality and different proportion of bentonite on falling strength, compression strength, and shock temperature of green pellet were investigated.

Feb 09, 2021 Bentonite has high swelling properties along with good viscosity and liquid limit. These properties are highly valued in most of the industrial applications. Sodium bentonite is well suited as a binder in the preparation of pellets, and in foundry and oil - well drilling mud. Bentonite also acts as a suspending agent in oil - well drilling fluids.

The U.S. Bureau of Mines investigated the use of organic binders as substitutes for bentonite in agglomerating iron ore concentrate. Over 30 organic binders were evaluated at several dosage levels in laboratory tests. The binder groups producing the greatest green pellet strengths were natural gums (guars), carboxyl methyl celluloses, and ...

May 01, 2004 Iron ore pellets use bentonite clay as binder at dosages of from 0.5% to 1.0% of the moist iron ore concentrate weight. As a natural product, bentonite has variable water-absorption and binding properties depending on its source. Therefore, it is best to have a method for evaluating a given bentonite to determine how effective it would be before it is purchased for use to bind concentrate into ...

Bentonite binders are cost-effective, environmental solutions since the majority of the sand and binder can be reused in a cyclical system. In iron ore pelletizing Imerys bentonite is used as a binder for the formation of iron ore pellets. Pellets are balls produced from iron ore or concentrates and are used as feed material for iron making.

Aug 28, 2017 The mixing of binders is very important. If the binder is not dispersed, evenly optimal results can not be expected. This applies to bentonite as well as to an organic binder but in view of the smaller dosage of peridur – about 5 to 15% of the quantity of bentonite commonly added – mixing of an organic binder would appear to be more important.

In pelletizing, iron ore, water and a binder are balled in a mechanical disc or drum to produce agglomerates. Bentonite is the most widely used binder. However, it is considered as an impurity due to its high SiO 2 and Al 2O 3 content. Many researchers have investigated different binders, mostly of organic origin, in pursuit of finding a viable ...

A bentonite binder composition and method of preparation is disclosed. The binder composition is particularly useful for pelletizing iron ore fines. It is prepared by intimately combining and mixing wet bentonite in a stockpile with soda ash, the moisture in the wet bentonite bringing about reaction to form an improved binder after a suitable aging period.
