The revenue from Australia's iron ore exports is currently worth over $15 billion. Over 80% of the shipped ores are fines (ie material smaller than 9mm), which have to be sintered to produce a lumpy product prior to reduction and smelting in iron making blast furnaces. An understanding of this process at the fundamental level is essential for enhancement of the nation's technological standing with our key trading partners - that is, to enable Australian iron-ore exporters to become 'knowledgable' suppliers. In addition, local iron-making industries will gain direct economic benefit from the improved sintering processes developed.

澳大利亚铁矿石出口的收入目前价值超过150亿美元。运出的矿石中有80%以上是细粒（即小于9毫米的材料），在炼铁高炉还原冶炼之前，必须将其烧结成块状产品。从根本上理解这一过程对于提高澳大利亚与主要贸易伙伴的技术地位至关重要，也就是说，使澳大利亚铁矿石出口商成为“知识渊博”的供应商。此外，当地的炼铁工业将从改进的烧结工艺中获得直接的经济效益。
