RESUMO
Abstract The induration furnace is one of the most important devices in the pellet production system. It is responsible for ensuring the quality of pellets produced, since a high level of thermal energy is necessary to reach the physical properties needed. Therefore, the refractory lining performance is important to guarantee the quality of pellets and to avoid thermal losses. Minor failures in the refractory lining may result in serious damage, if it not previously identified and repaired. This article was written to explain a preventive technique to identify and repair such minor issues with the refractory lining before escalation. The use of this technique in the proper frequency may result in furnace life cycle extension.
