    Abstract
    Green iron oxide pellets are indurated with thermal treatment in pelletizing plant to achieve sufficient mechanical properties and to be used in iron-steel industry. In the first stage, the pellets are dried with hot air coming from the firing unit. High heat transfer makes the evaporation rate exceeding the outgoing steam rate from the pellets and as a result, increasing the inner pressure of the pellets and fragment. On the other hand, low heat transfer causes low production rate. Using the related equations and considering the pellets' moisture and porosity and applying the pellets' condition on parameters such as specific heat capacity and heat conductivity, an acceptable standard is...

    Abstract
    As one of the most important agglomeration methods, pelletizing has a very important place in the iron and steel production chain. In the present study, the feasibility of improving FeO index in the final product of Pellet Factory No.1 of GolEGohar Mining and Industrial Company was investigated. The remaining FeO in the iron oxide pellet represents the amount of Magnetite that was not oxidized during the pelletizing process. The remaining FeO in the primary Magnetite is a disturbing structure for the direct reduction process and will cause a decrease in the compressive strength of the pellet (CCS) and as a result it will be crushed. Therefore, the percentage of the remaining FeO in the...
