Beneficiation of Iron Ore and the treatment of magnetic iron taconites, stage grinding and wet magnetic separation is standard practice. This also applies to iron ores of the non-magnetic type which after a reducing roast are amenable to magnetic separation.
Iron ore beneficiation is the process of improving the quality of iron ore by removing impurities and increasing its iron content. It is necessary to reduce alumina and silica in the feed. The process improves the chemical, physical, and metallurgical characteristics of the ore to make it a more desirable feed for iron-making furnaces.
3. Limonite Flotation process. Limonite has a complex structure consisting of hydrated iron oxides. The flotation method is unique in its ability to selectively separate the desired minerals from the unwanted gangue material using surfactants, thereby improving the overall efficiency of ore processing. Flotation involves the addition of reagents to …
