[0002] The main raw materials for producing cold briquetting are converter mud, steelmaking dust, furnace dust and machine head dust, etc. containing iron materials, plus a certain proportion of lime and binders and heat generating agents, which are cold-pressed into balls by a ball press. Specifically, a certain proportion of converter mud and steelmaking dust and furnace dust are mixed and digested on the ground by a forklift. After the water is consumed, the belt feeding is used to feed the machine head dust and lime into the digestion bin for digestion. After digestion, the belt feeding is used to feed the binders and heat generating agents into the double-shaft mixer for uniform mixing. The mixer is then fed into the ball press by a bucket elevator, and the cold briquetting is formed by the ball press.

[0003] Due to the high water content and high viscosity of the converter mud, and the unevenness of the belt feeding itself, the materials are often in the form of clumps and piles, which cannot be fed in a linear form.
