The pressure on the steel industry to reduce its carbon footprint has led to discussions to replace coke as the main reductant for iron ore and turn to natural gas, bio-syngas or hydrogen. Such a major transition from the blast furnace-basic oxygen furnace route, to the direct reduction-electric arc furnace route, for steel production would …
Beneficiation of Iron Ore and the treatment of magnetic iron taconites, stage grinding and wet magnetic separation is standard practice. This also applies to iron ores of the non-magnetic type which after a reducing roast are amenable to magnetic separation.
Materials. The two feeds that used for plant simulation were from Luossavaara-Kiirunavaara Ab (LKAB) iron ore deposit. The first data set is actual feed to the plant that were collected a during plant survey and analyzed in size fractions as described by Parian et al. (Citation 2016).The second set of data is the particles from …
Experiments were carried out using a spiral concentrator test rig containing feed conditioner, centrifugal pump and a spiral concentrator with feed to spiral and recirculation. Time samples of concentrate and tails were collected, weighed, dried analysed. Regression equations were developed for Concentrate yield, grade and percent recovery of iron …
Direct shipping of high grade iron ore, because of depletion or partial depletion of reserves, or high costs of operation has forced operators to use some means of beneficiation to produce an acceptable product with the lower grade iron ore reserves. Deposits of comparatively lower grade iron ore that remain relatively untouched or by …
