Zusammenfassung:Sintering, as one of the major sources of carbon emissions in the steel industry, is in urgent need of innovation in carbon reduction technology under the targets of carbon peaking and carbon neutrality in China. We propose the carbon free sintering process which is similar to the belt roaster, where heat is provided by gas fuel combustion for the layer. In order to achieve the process, this study uses the micro-sintering method to simulate it by varying the sintering temperature, sintering time and binary basicity of the mixture. It was investigated the process of mineralisation solidification of carbon-free sintering and to provide relevant guidance for future carbon-free sintering process experiments. As the sintering temperature increased, the strength and calcium ferrite of the samples first increased and then decreased, reach the maximum value at 1300°C and 1275°C respectively. However, the porosity of the samples first decreased and then increased, reach the minimum value at 1275°C. As the sintering time increased, the strength and calcium ferrite first increased and then decreased, reach the maximum values at 12 min and 6 min respectively, and the porosity of the samples first decreased and then increased, reach the minimum values at 6 min. As the binary basicity increased, the strength of the samples first decreased and then increased, reach the minimum value at basicity 1.8, and the calcium ferrite and porosity of the samples gradually increased. The carbon-free sintering process does not change the consolidation process of iron ore, and it has theoretical feasibility.
