A Review of Direct Reduction–Magnetic Separation Process for Ferronickel Production from Nickel Laterite
Abstract
Ferronickel, produced from the thermal upgrading of nickeliferous ores, is one of the feed materials for stainless steel production. However, traditional high-temperature smelting processes for producing ferronickel are facing increasing pressure due to environmental concerns and decreasing ore grades. The pyrometallurgical processing of low-grade laterites, aimed at achieving high production rates for ferronickel in an economically viable …
