Pyroxenite
Transforming Raw Potential into Industrial Excellence
Pyroxenite, developed through advanced thermodynamic modeling, is utilized as a dual flux in the pelletization process. This tailor-made solution efficiently handles a wide variety of iron-ore fines, leading to a significant 12% increase in pellet plant productivity. The innovation behind pyroxenite ensures optimal performance and reliability, making it a superior choice for the industry.
With the introduction of pyroxenite, the need for dolomite in blast furnaces is eliminated, where previously 100 kg/ton of dolomite was required. In sinter plants, dolomite consumption was 50 kg/ton. Pyroxenite offers the same magnesium oxide (MgO) content and a higher silica content compared to dolomite, providing substantial direct benefits and enhancing overall operational efficiency.
