A huge quantity of iron oxides fines (60 % of ore) are generated in mines area and in different units of steel plants. Coarser sizes of these are used in sinter plant. However in sintering, there is some restriction of using micro fines. It is possible to use in pelletization, but pelletization is a cost intensive process due to its high temperature curing.

The use of high-quality iron ore, leaving out low-quality overburden, has resulted in huge accumulation of dumped rejects over the years. Due to limited beneficiation facilities available at SAIL mines the accumulated stockpiles of so-called waste dumps are consuming lot of space, putting pressure on environment and creating pollution hazard.

Abstract. We look at the life indices of iron ore, the very long term forecast of iron and steel production and the conseq-uent demand for iron ore made on optimistic assumptions also show that the steel industry can remain comfortable with domestic iron ore supplies, however the life of high grade lumpy iron ore is not more than 10 years from now on.

Abstract. Mining operations degrade natural ecosystems by generating a large quantity of mine tailings. Mine tailings remain in dams/open ponds without further treatment after valuable metals such as …

In India, iron ores processing industries play a vital role in the Indian economy. During the washing and processing of iron ores, slimes less than 0.15 mm are generated and discarded into the tailing pond. These slimes need processing as they cannot be used directly in blast furnaces. In the present investigation, a typical iron ore slime sample …

In steel industry and in mines, a significant amount of ultra-fines waste iron oxides and iron ore fines is generated. Utilizations of these fines are required to reduce the environmental hazards and conserve the natural resources. Some of these fines are normally used in sintering practice. However, sintering has a limitation of accepting ultra-fines materials.

India is endowed with large reserves of iron ore. Mech-anised mining generates considerable amount of iron ore fines. Additionally, large quantities of slimes are generated from washing of ores at mine-heads.Further, many coal based rotary kiln sponge iron plants are generating huge quantities waste fines within their works. In addi …

Open-cast iron ore mining is essential for meeting the demand for iron ore and steel production, it is important to address its environmental and sustainability …

Kenya relies heavily on the importation of manufactured goods with iron and steel products forming the bulk of the raw materials. The country has some iron ore deposits and coal reserves among other input for steel making. The main deposits of the ore are found in Kishushe, Marimanti and Samia. The paper focuses on the iron ore from Kishushe ...

During the wet processing of iron ores, a substantial amount of slimes are generated. The slime contains very fine iron bearing mineral particles which are difficult to remove and cause environmental pollution when discharged. In this paper, an attempt was made to study the settling and dispersion behaviour of the very fine iron ore mineral particles …

Enormous amount of fines are generated in Indian iron ore and coal mines due to mechanized mining and mineral dressing operations. Utilization of these fines for extracting metal is of vital concern for judicious resource utilization and pollution control. The term composite pellet is being employed here to mean a pellet containing mixture of fines of …

This upgradation would reduce the alumina content of the Paraburdoo fines from 2.7% to 2. 1 % A1,0j and the final Hamersley blend for shipping from 2. 45% to 2. 2% Al2O3.This paper examines the background to the decisions for installing this plant as well as disc-ussing the plant circuit and the impact of the problems associated with dewatering ...

Singhbhum-Orissa iron ore belt in the eastern India has abundant reserves of iron ore in the form of horse shoe belt. The soft laminated ore, goethitic-lateritic ores, friable ore and blue dust abundantly occur-in this region and are very soft and friable in nature: Large amount of fines and slimes arc generated during mining, washing, crushing ...

It was observed that metallization for indurated iron ore pellets, and concentric charging were limited to 80% to 83% where as composite pellets had a metallic iron of 88% to 89%. Thermal efficiency of tunnel kiln is quiet low and depends on the length of the kiln. Present experiment show that use of composite pellets in the present kiln could ...
