AbstractIron ore sinter, constituting a major proportion of blast furnace burden, significantly impacts the blast furnace performance. The stone composition of iron ore fines, particularly alumina, sinter basicity and sinter MgO together with the thermal conditions that sinter blends are subjected to play an important role in the formation of mineral phases in sinter.
The mineralogy and microstructure of sinter play an important role in determining the physical and metallurgical properties of iron ore sinter. Characterisation of sinter phases is, therefore, a cost-effective and complementary tool to conventional physical and metallurgical testing of iron ore sinter in evaluating and predicting sinter quality.

World resources are estimated to be greater than 800 billion tons of crude ore containing more than 230 billion tons of iron. The only source of primary iron is iron ore, but before all that iron ore can be turned into steel, it must go through the sintering process. Sinter is the primary feed material for making iron and steel in a blast furnace.
Iron ore sinter typically constitutes more than 60% of the blast furnace ferrous burden in modern blast furnaces in East Asia. Granulation and thermal densification are two important steps in iron ore sintering and determine the quality of the resultant sinter and the performance of the sintering process.

Iron ore is the raw material used to make Pig Iron, which is one of the main raw materials to make steel. 98% of the mined iron ore is used to make steel. Indeed, it has been argued that iron ore is "more integral to the global economy than any other commodity, except perhaps oil". Iron ore is mined in about 50 countries.
The commercial tests in sintering grate are enormously expensive. If the transfer phenomena in the directions of grate length and width are neglected, iron ore sintering can be considered as 1-D (in the direction of bed height) unsteady process. The time axis can be transformed into length by multiplying the traveling speed .

Regions in which iron ore has formed over millions of years (e.g. through volcanism) and can be mined economically are also referred to as iron ore deposits. Especially many ore deposits can be found in countries such as China, Australia, Brazil, India and Russia. These countries account for around 85 % of the total global iron ore mining volume.
