Iron ore is primarily found as the oxides of iron, notably hematite and magnetite and as hydroxides like goethite and limonite. Small amounts are found as the carbonates in siderite, as sulphides in pyrites and as silicates in chamosite and greenalite. Indian economy is growing steel demand and supply will grow in the same way. As good quality iron ore deposits are depleting very fast beneficiation technologies have to be adopted to meet iron ore demand. . Agglomeration technologies such as Pelletization / Sintering have to be added to Steel Plant so that concentrates can be used as feed material. This paper will give an insight about the potential of pelletization technology of iron ore. Also focus on the present status of iron ore reserves in India, inventory of iron ore pelletization plant, primary data collection by conducting field monitoring for air, water and solid waste Compilation of primary data and assessment of compliance to stipulated norms, Preparation of best practices in Pelletization process for sound environmental management in eastern region of India.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
