ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a method and facility for preventing crumbling and powderization of green pellets when producing high strength green pellets using a powder feedstock and using the pellets in a rotary hearth reducing furnace and for efficiently reducing the same. It comprises kneading by a kneader5a feedstock of a powder of a fine particle size (20 to 80 wt % having size of not more than 10 μm) including a metal oxide and carbon-bearing powder fed from a feed storage tank1and producing green pellets by a pan type pelletizer7. The green pellets are screened by a pellet screen9, then dried by a pellet dryer11and reduced by firing in a rotary hearth reducing furnace13. At that time, the green pellets are continuously conveyed to prevent crumbling.
