Effects of mechanical activation and oxidation-reduction on hydrochloric acid leaching of Panxi ilmenite concentration

The effects of oxidation-reduction treatment and mechanical activation on the hydrochloric acid leaching performance of Panxi ilmenite concentration were investigated.The results show that both of oxidation-reduction treatment and mechanical activation significantly accelerate the extraction of Fe,Ca and Mg from Panxi ilmenite concentration;however,the CaO and MgO contents of the calcined residues obtained from oxidized-reduced ilmenite concentration are higher than the standard values required by chlorination process.The Ca and Mg in oxidized-reduced ilmenite concentration can be leached much faster after mechanical activation,yielding a synthetic rutile which meets the requirements of chlorination process containing 90.50% TiO2 and 1.37% total iron as well as combined CaO and MgO of 1.00%.The optimum oxidation and reduction conditions are as follows：oxidization at 900 ℃ in the presence of oxygen for 15 min and reduction at 750 ℃ by hydrogen for 30 min.

Recovery of iron from waste ferrous sulphate by co-precipitation and magnetic separation

Magnetite concentrate was recovered from ferrous sulphate by co-precipitation and magnetic separation. In co-precipitation process, the effects of reaction conditions on iron recovery were studied, and the optimal reaction parameters are proposed as follows： n（CaO）/n（Fe2＋） 1.4：1, reaction temperature 80 ℃, ferrous ion concentration 0.4 mol/L, and the final mole ratio of Fe3＋ to FJ＋ in the reaction solution 1.9-2.1. In magnetic separation process, the effects of milling time and magnetic induction intensity on iron recovery were investigated. Wet milling played an important part in breaking the encapsulated magnetic phases. The results showed that the mixed product was wet-milled for 20 min before magnetic separation, the grade and recovery rate of iron in magnetite concentrate were increased from 51.41% and 84.15% to 62.05% and 85.35%, respectively.

Behaviors of vanadium and chromium in coal-based direct reduction of high-chromium vanadium-bearing titanomagnetite concentrates followed by magnetic separation

The reduction behaviors of FeO·V2O3 and FeO·Cr2O3 during coal-based direct reduction have a decisive impact on the efficient utilization of high-chromium vanadium-bearing titanomagnetite concentrates. The effects of molar ratio of C to Fe n(C)/n(Fe) and temperature on the behaviors of vanadium and chromium during direct reduction and magnetic separation were investigated. The reduced samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning election microscopy(SEM) and energy dispersive spectrometry(EDS) techniques. Experimental results indicate that the recoveries of vanadium and chromium rapidly increase from 10.0% and 9.6% to 45.3% and 74.3%, respectively, as the n(C)/n(Fe) increases from 0.8 to 1.4. At n(C)/n(Fe) of 0.8, the recoveries of vanadium and chromium are always lower than 10.0% in the whole temperature range of 1100-1250 °C. However, at n(C)/n(Fe) of 1.2, the recoveries of vanadium and chromium considerably increase from 17.8% and 33.8% to 42.4% and 76.0%, respectively, as the temperature increases from 1100 °C to 1250 °C. At n(C)/n(Fe) lower than 0.8, most of the FeO·V2O3 and FeO·Cr2O3 are not reduced to carbides because of the lack of carbonaceous reductants, and the temperature has little effect on the reduction behaviors of FeO·V2O3 and FeO·Cr2O3, resulting in very low recoveries of vanadium and chromium during magnetic separation. However, at higher n(C)/n(Fe), the reduction rates of FeO·V2O3 and FeO·Cr2O3 increase significatly because of the excess amount of carbonaceous reductants. Moreover, higher temperatures largely induce the reduction of FeO·V2O3 and FeO·Cr2O3 to carbides. The newly formed carbides are then dissolved in the γ(FCC) phase, and recovered accompanied with the metallic iron during magnetic separation.

Direct carbothermic reduction of ilmenite concentrates by adding high dosage of Na_(2)CO_(3) in microwave field

A clean and efficient route for the utilization of ilmenite concentrates was proposed by direct carbothermic reduction in microwave field.High dosage of Na_(2)CO_(3),which can be recycled,was added to accelerate the reduction reaction of ilmenite concentrates.After microwave heating in the temperature range of 1073−1123 K for 20 min,the main products were Na_(2)TiO_(3) and metallic Fe with the metallization ratios being as high as 92.67%−93.21%.The reduction products were processed by water leaching,ball-milling in CO2 atmosphere and magnetic separation in turn.The final products after magnetic separation were Fe-rich materials and Ti-rich materials(90.04 wt.%TiO2),which can be used to produce iron and TiCl4 or TiO2.The optimized heating temperature was 1123 K in terms of metallization ratios,magnetic separation and caking property of the reduction products.Besides,the reduction mechanism of ilmenite concentrates with the addition of Na_(2)CO_(3) in microwave field was also proposed.

Reduction of Panzhihua titanium-bearing oxidized pellets by CO-N_2-H_2 gas

The effect of H_2 gas content on the reduction of Panzhihua titanomagnetite concentrate pellets by carbon monoxide was investigated by isothermal reduction experiment using CO-N_2-H_2 gas mixtures in a vertical electric resistance furnace.The morphology and phase transformation of reduced samples obtained were detected by scanning electron microscopy,energy disperse spectroscopy analysis and X-ray diffractometry respectively.The results show that increasing H_2 content will enhance the initial stage of reduction rate apparently.There are two reasons responsible for this effect,one is that H_2 accelerates the chemical reaction,and the other is that the addition of H_2 gas can improve the porosity of pellet intensively.It is noteworthy that this effect is more obvious when the reduction temperature reaches 1473 K with sticking phenomenon happening.There are no crystalline phases which can be found such as ulvospinle,ilmenite,ferrous-pseudobrookite and any titanium oxide except titanomagnetite(TTM).The reduction progress is suggested as follows:1) Fe_2O_3→Fe_3O_4→FeO→Fe;2) Fe_2TiO_5→Fe_2TiO_4+Fe_3O_4→TTM.Element Al migrates and gets enriched in high titanium content iron ores,and eventually Al to Ti molar ratio is 1:3.Al is likely to dissolve in titanium iron oxides to form a kind of composite iron compound,which results in the restrain of reduction.
