Metallurgical grade ore fines or upgraded UG2 ore fines, <6 mm carbon reductant, and a clay binder are batched (weight proportionated) according to a pre-determined metallurgical recipe (Step 1, Figure 5). Green pellets traditionally include 12–14 wt% carbonaceous reductant and 3–4.5 wt% clay, with chromite being the balance.
Chrome ore flotation Generally, when the gravity separation and magnetic separation fail, flotation offers an alternative technique to concentrate the fine-grained and ultra-fine-grained chromite rocks and fine-grained chromite tailings which require fine grinding for liberation. But grinding will produce a large amount of ore slime.
Abstract. Chromite reduction by carbon dissolved in a high carbon ferrochromium alloy melt has been investigated in the temperature range 1580-1640°C using a slag system based on CaO 2-FeO-Cr 2 O 3-SiO 2-Al 2 O 3.Although the reduction is essentially first order with respect to Cr 2 O 3 concentration, it exhibits both zero order …

The chromite is associated with magnesium and as a result, it is expected that separation of chromite by magnetic separation will be easier and will occur at a higher magnetic strength as compared to the ferruginous ores [8]. Further studies need to target recovery of these fine chromite using high intensity magnetic separation. Mg Si Al Cr Fe Ca
The supplier of this technology specifies that recycling of chromite-containing dust collected from the pellet sintering off-gas and fines screened out from the sintered pellets (collectively referred to as pre-oxidized chromite fines) should be limited to a maximum of 4 wt% of the total pellet composition.
The Cr:Fe ratio (chromium-to-iron mass ratio) of chromite affects the production of chrome-based ferroalloys. Although the literature contains numerous reports related to the magnetic separation of different minerals, limited work concerning the application of magnetic separation to fine chromite from the Sukinda region of India to …
The author has worked for almost three decades in this area and has extended the sintering technology to manganese ore fines and chromite fines. In case of chromite, the temperature required for sintering is about 200 0 C more than that required for iron ore sintering. The process conditions for manganese ore sintering are almost …
In a novel method of beneficiation of low-grade chromite ore, nuggets, 25 mm in diameter and 10 mm long, made of chromite ore and coke fines, are subjected to partial reduction. A significant degree of reduction of iron oxide is observed at temperatures of 1373–1523 K up to a reduction time of 240 min, and subsequent magnetic separation …
Chromite ore is available in nature mainly in the form of Cr2O3.FeO which contains 40 - 52% Cr2O3 and 15- 20% FeO by weight. Global annual output of chromite ore is approximately 20 Mt, which has ...
Introduction. Chromite recoveries is a major concern particularly in processing of finely disseminated ores due to its inherent complexities. The gravity separation process is the …
The smelting behavior of waste chromite ore fines containing Cr and Ni to produce crude Fe–Cr–Ni–N alloy was investigated in this study. In the experiments, for each heat, liquid steel melt (metal pool 1 kg) was prepared in a 3--capacity laboratory-scale electric arc furnace for the absorption of reduced metals like chromium, nickel, etc., …

Pelletizing of chromite ore fines followed by heat hardening can produce good quality agglomerate, but a considerable size reduction by grinding is necessary prior to the pelletization, which consumes much energy. Chatterjee 3) reported on the difficulty of making strong pellets from the Indian high-grade chromite ores. The difficulty could be ...
The MCHR was only mined for a short time-span during open-pit development in the early noughties. During this time the steel price was high and China bought large quantities of the low-grade and fine-grained MCHR ore compared to the high-grade Bushveld chromite ore. After this phase, the ore was stockpiled.

Chrome ore concentrate consists of high-temperature melting oxides such as Cr2O3, MgO, and Al2O3. The presence of these refractory constituents makes the ore a very high melting mineral. Hence, it is difficult to produce sinter from chrome ore by a pyrometallurgical route. Currently, chrome ore is ground to below 75 μm, pelletized, heat hardened through …
