Experimental Research on the Lean Magnetite of RongTian Mine Corporation by Single Magnetic Process

In this paper, the mineral properties of the lean magnetite in RongTian mine corporation was studied, during which the analysis of the mineral properties, prelimenary separation on the lump mine, two-section grinding, one section fine screening and three-section low intensity magnetic separation process were carried out. The results showed that if the suitable mineral processing flowsheet is adapted, we can achieved such index:concentrate grade of 63.65%, Fe recovery of 47.12% based on the ore grade of 10.05%.. According to the experimental result analysis, most of the iron minerals could be used to support the steel production of LingGang Group.Single magnetic process proved to be an suitable and promising process to conduct the fine particles of lean magnitite.

Preparation of Magnetically Modified Zeolites and the Application of Metal Ions Adsorption

Natural zeolites combined with the magnetic iron oxides are prepared by a chemical coprecipitation process. A detailed characterization of our magnetically modified zeolite (MMZ) is given, including powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), nitrogen adsorption and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). The results reveal that in comparison with Na-zeolite, the structure of MMZ has no obvious change but its surface area increases from 25.13 m2g-1to 100.90 m2g-1. The adsorption properties of MMZ to Pb2+and Cu2+were studied. The results show that the maximum loading capacities for Pb2+and Cu2+in the initial concentration range are 123.74 and 14.633 mg g-1, respectively. The MMZ can be used as an adsorbent for removal of heavy metal ions from industrial effluents or municipal waters, and the saturated adsorbent is separated from the medium by a simple magnetic process.

Study on Process of Microwave Magnetizing Roast for Low-Grade Hematite

The microwave magnetic roasting process of low-grade hematite under low temperature was studied experimentally. The effects of roasting temperature, carbon content and roasting time on the reduction and magnetic separation were investigated. It shows that the best percent reduction is 10.96％(near to theoretical value 11.11%)which can be obtained under the condition of roasting temperature of 650°С , carbon content of 1.0% and roasting time of 10 minute. The results of magnetic separation show that the best magnetic separation grade for the sintered ore occurs at 570 instead of 650°С owing to the sintering of ore powders at high temperature of 650°С . Further ball-milling and magnetic separation of this concentrate produces two kind of final concentrate, one of which is in grade 65.6% with the recovery being 45.3%, and the other is in grade 63.4% with the recovery being 62.6％. After the magnetic separation, concentrate ore meets the iron-smelting requirements because of its low S and P content and high grade. This magnetic process results in the enrichment of RE and Nb in tailing ore, which can be reused for the extraction of Rare Earth and Nb.
