Instrumentation And Control For The Grate-Kiln Iron Ore Pelletizing System

Rapid advances have been made in the past few years in the application of automatic controls and instrumentation to iron ore pelletizing plants. Present practice in applying instrumentation and control to the Grate-Kiln system of iron ore pelletizing is described. Major control points and loops are tabulated. Future trends in the application of digital control including computer data logging systems are described.
