Sintering is one of the main processes during the iron and steel production process, and intelligent sintering is an important part of intelligent iron and steel manufacturing. The research progress on the intelligent control during the sintering process in recent years is reviewed, and the progress made in the intelligent control of sinter chemical composition, process state, solid fuel consumption optimization control and key process parameter optimization are emphatically introduced. At the same time, the research direction on intelligent control during the sintering process is discussed from such aspects as mathematical modeling, process control and process parameter optimization.
