Development of Single Pellet Induration Model for Magnetite Pellet: A Holistic Approach
Evolution of the internal state of magnetite pellet during induration is defined by the kinetics of physico-chemical transformation it undergoes owing primarily to oxidation [< ~1273 K (1000 °C)] and sintering...
