WHAT IS AN INDURATING FURNACE
In an Indurating Furnace, the pellets are loaded on to a travelling grate to a depth of approximately 3060cm where they are preheated (typically to 800- 9000C), before entering a - higher temperature stage (around 1,200-1,3500C) which in some designs is a continuation of the travelling grate, and in others take the form of a rotary kiln.
