Abstract
This invention relates to an improvement of the process for producing sintered iron ore with a Dwight-Lloyd machine, and it provides a process for producing sintered ore with high reducibility by sintering a raw material mix of a moisture content between 4.5 and 8.0% on the pallets of said machine, which comprises drying the surface layer of said mix on the pallets to discharge 3 to 25%, preferably 5 to 20%, of the moisture content of the mix from the sintering system, and thereafter igniting the surface layer of the mix to sinter the same with air or gas sucked downward.
