Recovery of Titania Slag and Iron from Semi-molten State Reduced Ilmenite Concentrate: Liberation Characteristics and Magnetic Separation

The electric arc furnace (EAF) smelting ilmenite concentrate process which produces titania slag, is high energy consumption, high pollution, and low efficiency process. An economical and clean process for semi-molten reduction followed by magnetic separation to produce titania slag from Panzhihua ilmenite concentrate is proposed. In the present study, grinding and wet magnetic separation of the products from semi-molten state reduction of …
