In the hydrometallurgical processing of manganese from its ore, the leach liquors often contain divalent ions such as iron, manganese, copper, nickel, cobalt and zinc along with other impurities which make manganese very difficult to separate. ... bases or water, removal of impurities such as iron, separation and recovery processes and refining ...
According to the results in Table 1, iron is the primary component to be recovered in the raw ore with a TFe content of 56.47 %, a FeO content of 2.30 %, and a harmful element S content of 1.74 %.The main gangue minerals are SiO 2 with 6.44 % content, followed by CaO and Al 2 O 3 with 2.56 % and 1.26 % contents, respectively; …
This paper presents a brief review of the history of titanium smelting and the current trends in related research and development. Presently, both electrolytic and metallothermic reduction processes utilizing various feed materials such as titanium oxide are widely studied. However, many challenges remain to be addressed before realizing the …
Hematite, also spelled haematite, is a weakly magnetic iron ore with better floatability than magnetite and wide distribution.It is one of the most important raw materials for the extraction of iron. Its composition is complex. In addition to containing a small amount of magnetite, the impurity embedding of haematite has uneven particle size and …
ores, laterites, and sulfides, which make this paper a valuable guide by providing an overview of the process used to isolate nickel from its ores and an important source of strategies used to enhance its extraction. Keywords: Nickel extraction, laterite ores, sulfide ores, Ni secondary sources, leaching.
Iron ore tailings, which are important secondary resources, have outstanding latent application value in iron recovery. In this study, a pilot-scale experiment on the iron recovery from iron ore tailings was investigated using innovative technology of pre-concentration and suspension magnetization roasting (SMR), followed by magnetic …
In this study, a process to separate manganese and iron from manganiferous iron ores by reductive acid leaching followed by magnetic separation was conceived and experimentally tested. In the leaching process, sulfuric acid was used as lixiviant and oxalic acid was used as reductant. The experimental results showed that the manganese and …
Iron and steel industry is an important part of the economic development. China's iron resource production, consumption, and trade are increasing recently, and in 2010–2015, the annual iron consumption increased from 470 Mt to 620 Mt (Li et al., 2018).The rapid development of the iron and steel industry has caused a severe …
These factors make the recovery less attractive. However, the increasing demand of iron ore in China and the rapid increase of its price in recent years have sparked renewed interests in using these iron-rich solid wastes as secondary iron ore resources. There are several iron recovery techniques reported in the literature.
An iron ore concentrate containing 64.6% Fe can be produced using this flow sheet from a run-of-mine ore containing 51.1% Fe at a mass yield of 69.6% to the iron ore concentrate, an iron recovery of 88.0%, and a tailings grade of 20.2% Fe. 2. SLon magnetic separator flow sheet to upgrade specularite ores. Download: Download full …
In general, the industrial flowsheets for the beneficiation of itabirite iron ores from the Quadrilátero Ferrífero (Minas Gerais state) in Brazil involves grinding, desliming, magnetic separation and cationic reverse flotation using both mechanical and columns flotation cells. At Brazilian plants, it is estimated that Fe losses generated at the slimes …
High-pressure acid leach (HPAL) residue from laterite nickel ore is a potentially valuable resource for ironmaking; however, its efficient utilization is hindered by its high sulfur content. In this study, an effective and straightforward method is proposed for sulfur removal from HPAL residue. The process involves sieving and sodium carbonate …
The ever-increasing demand for steel and the subsequent depletion of high-grade ores requires the massive utilization of low-grade iron ores. In the present study, an iron ore slime sample containing 56.1% Fe was investigated using physical beneficiation, carbothermal reduction, and a microwave-assisted process; however, physical …
Bauxite ore is the principal resource for aluminum production. Bauxite ore is composed of aluminum-based minerals like gibbsite (Al(OH) 3), boehmite (γ-AlO(OH)), and diaspore (α-AlO(OH)) with auxiliary minerals such as hematite (Fe 2 O 3), goethite (FeO(OH)), quartz (SiO 2), rutile/anatase (TiO 2), and kaolinite (Al 2 Si 2 O 5 (OH) …
The depletion of high-grade ore minerals and the scarcity of fossil fuel reserves are challenging factors for metallurgical industries in the future. Also, extensive mining for increased steel demand results in the generation of fines often found unsuitable for use as direct feedstock for the production of metals and alloys. Apart from mines …
As reduction of iron ores conducted solely via hydrogen-based DR is endothermic, ... It was demonstrated that an oversupply of hydrogen above six times the quantity required to produce sponge iron hinders heat recovery from hydrogen output in condensers (Vogl et al., 2018). This means that additional energy supply must be given …
