摘要
Iron ore sintering is an energy'intensive process associated with emission of pollutants in iron and steel in- dustry. In order to comprehensively evaluate the environmental impacts of sintering, a detailed life cycle assessment of a sintering plant was conducted. Life cycle inventory showed that, in the production of 1 t sinter ore, 241.53 kg CO2 , 22.68 kg CO, 0. 294 kg SO2 , 0.63 kg NO, , 1.18 /lg dioxin and 0.48 kg dust were discharged. Global war- ming potentials, acidification potentials, photochemical ozone creation potentials and human toxicity potentials were selected as four impact categories, and the evaluation index for the sintering plant was calculated as 3.45 × 10 ^-12. Fi nally, based on the environmental impact analysis, several measures of reducing environmental [oadings of the sinte- ring plant were provided, which included the utilization of denitrification equipment, recirculation of the hot waste gas and process improvement to reduce fuel consumption.
