High carbon content iron-base briquettes and process for preparing same

摘要

A process for preparing high carbon content briquettes includes providing a particulate material which includes iron particles including iron oxide in an amount of at least about 4% based on weight of the material, and carbon particles in an amount greater than about 2% based on weight of the material; and subjecting the material to briquetting temperature and pressure so as to provide stable agglomerate briquettes of the material.
