Purpose. This research aims to promote the assay of iron and reduce the phosphorus grade of the final DRI. Methodology. A high-phosphorus oolitic iron ore from Gara Djebilet deposit underwent the procedure of coal-based direct reduction (coal-based DR) followed by wet low-intensity magnetic separation (WLIMS). The effects of temperature, periods of time and Na2SO4 dosage on phosphorus removal, metallisation degree and iron recovery rate were tried and optimised. Furthermore, phase changes in iron oxides and the distributing features of phosphorus in both reduced and magnetic materials were investigated as well. Findings. The appropriate addition of sodium sulfate improves the Fe-P separation during the coal-based DR of Gara Djebilet mixed pellets. Originality. Using additives of CaO and sodium sulfate during the coal-based DR-magnetic separation of mixed pellets sourced from Gara Djebilet deposit. Practical value. The results reveal that a final direct reduced powder (DRI) assaying 96 wt% Fe and 0.16 wt% P at a recovery rate of 97.72% was obtained when the ore-coal-CaO mixed pellets were reduced in the presence of 5 wt% Na2SO4 at 1250 C for 30 min. Thus, the coal-based DR could be used as an alternative to the blast furnace (BF) route in the steelmaking industry from refractory iron ores.

Iron ore tailings (IOTs) are a form of solid waste produced during the beneficiation process of iron ore concentrate. In this paper, iron recovery from IOTs was studied at different points during a process involving pre-concentration followed by direct reduction and magnetic separation. Then, slag-tailing concrete composite admixtures were prepared from high-silica residues. Based on the analyses of the chemical composition and crystalline phases, a pre-concentration test was developed, and a pre-concentrated concentrate (PC) with an iron grade of 36.58 wt % and a total iron recovery of 83.86 wt % was obtained from a feed iron grade of 12.61 wt %. Furthermore, the influences of various parameters on iron recovery from PC through direct reduction and magnetic separation were investigated. The optimal parameters were found to be as follows: A roasting temperature of 1250 °C, a roasting time of 50 min, and a 17.5:7.5:12.5:100 ratio of bitumite/sodium carbonate/lime/PC. Under these conditions, the iron grade of the reduced iron powder was 92.30 wt %, and the iron recovery rate was 93.96 wt %. With respect to the original IOTs, the iron recovery was 78.79 wt %. Then, highly active slag-tailing concrete composite admixtures were prepared using the high-silica residues and S75 blast furnace slag powder. When the amount of high-silica residues replacing slag was 20%, the strength of cement mortar blocks at 7 days and 28 days was 33.11 MPa and 50 MPa, respectively, whereas the activity indices were 89 and 108, respectively. Meanwhile, the fluidity rate was appropriately 109. When the content of high-silica residues replacing slag was not more than 30%, the quality of mineral admixtures was not reduced. Last but not least, reusing the high-silica residues during iron recovery enabled the complete utilization of the IOTs.

SYNOPSIS We present three technological scenarios for the recovery of valuable components from gangue, stored in the tailings dam at Kremikovtzi metallurgical plant in Bulgaria, into marketable iron-containing pellets. In the first approach the iron concentrate was recovered through a two-stage flotation process, desliming, and magnetic separation. In the second proposed process, the iron concentrate was subjected to four sequential stages of magnetic separation coupled with selective magnetic flocculation. The third route entails the not very common practice of magnetizing roasting, followed by selective magnetic flocculation, desliming, and magnetic separation. The iron concentrate was pelletized in a laboratory-scale pelletizer. Each technology has been assessed with regard to the mass yield of iron concentrate, the iron recovery. and the iron, lead, and zinc content in order to identify the most effective route. Keywords: tailings reprocessing, magnetizing roasting, pelletization.

The Band-e Narges deposit is located about 70 km northeast of the city of Badrud, northern Isfahan province. Band-E Narges ore deposit is mining for magnetite. To release valuable minerals, crushing and grinding implemented for separation ore from the gangue. Magnetic separation and flotation methods for upgrading magnetite iron ore were carried out in different experimental conditions with varied parameters. The particle size of the initial content was 74 microns for flotation, and 150 microns for magnetic separation. The initial samples, with the iron grade of 43.4% and sulfur of 1.9%, are individually subjected to upgrading by floatation and magnetic separation during which the affecting parameters for each method were optimized. The improvement in the optimal condition for magnetic separation culminated in 60.85% for the iron grade, 85.21% iron for recovery and 1.08% for sulfur content. The upgrading by floatation in the optimal mode produced 60.02% iron grade, 80.41% iron recovery and 0.95% sulfur content. To determine the best method for the pre-concentration stage of ore, the content gained from each technique passed reclining for grad improvement. The final content obtained from the magnetic separation of was undergone the floatation test yielded to a content with 64.3% iron grade, 77.15% iron recovery and 0.7% sulfur content. The use of magnetic separation as a pre-concentration stage for floatation method is proposed as an economical method for improving the grade of the iron and reduce the sulfur content and to avoid the high cost of grinding, which is costly part of processing procedures.
