Abstract (en)

An agglomerated ore assessing method is provided that can assess clustering of reduced iron when it has been reduced at a high hydrogen concentration, with thermal compensation using blowing sensible heat taken into account. In this method, agglomerated ore is reduced while being subjected to a predetermined load at 1000°C to 1200°C, both inclusive, to produce a reduced aggregate; a tumble treatment is performed on the reduced aggregate using a tumble tester; cluster strength CS of the reduced aggregate calculated by Formula (1) below is measured; and a clustering property of the agglomerated ore is assessed using the cluster strength CS: CS = (W'/W) × 100 ··· (1), where CS is cluster strength (mass%); W is the mass (g) of a reduced aggregate that is equal to or larger than a maximum particle diameter of the agglomerated ore; and W' is the mass (g) of a reduced aggregate after a tumble treatment in the tumble tester that is equal to or larger than the maximum particle diameter of the agglomerated ore.
