ABSTRACT:
A process is provided for sintering iron-bearing particulate materials in which the final sinter contains 3/5.5% MgO, yet has substantially the same strength as a low MgO limestone sinter. At least 20% of the MgO in the final sinter product must come from free MgO-bearing material other than dolomite having a particle size smaller than 3/8 inch, but not more than 20% of it can have a particle size smaller than 1/64 inch. Also, not more than 25% of the MgO in the final product may come from dolomite. The invention includes the relatively higher strength MgO-containing sinter produced.
