WHY AGGLOMERATE ?
The main objectives behind the agglomeration of powders are:
Process dedusting fines in order to obtain a densified and eventually inertized product
Create an homogeneous mix of several components
Improve the appearance of a consumer good and its handling characteristics
Improve flowability in silos, hoppers, etc...
Increase the bulk density by coefficients ranging from 2 to 10
Improve the chemical, energetical, metallurgical efficiency of the raw materail
Improve handling properties for an easier transport, storage or collection of the raw material
