Solids Drying: Basics and Applications

The two zones are demarcated by a break point called the critical moisture content. In a typical graph of moisture content versus drying rate and moisture content versus time, section AB represents the constant-rate period. In that zone, moisture is considered to be evaporating from a saturated surface at a rate governed by diffusion …

Nickel Ore

Fine ore cargoes, such as nickel ore, can safely be carried, at any moisture content, on ships specifically designed or modified to the RINA criteria. Cargo sampling and testing for verifying moisture content is not necessary when cargo is loaded on ships complying with the RINA criteria. Our notations on this field are:

Laterite nickel ore, which comprises 73% of the world's proven nickel reserves is the dominant source of nickel. However, only 42% of the world's production of nickel comes from laterite nickel ore [1], [2]. Ferronickel processing from laterite ores requires high energy costs, especially when laterite ores with low nickel content are processed.

23.3: Metallurgy of Iron and Steel

As the ore, lime, and coke drop into the furnace (Figure (PageIndex{1})), any silicate minerals in the ore react with the lime to produce a low-melting mixture of calcium silicates called slag, which floats on top of the molten iron. Molten iron is then allowed to run out the bottom of the furnace, leaving the slag behind.

8.2: Precipitation Gravimetry

Dissolving the ore in the presence of H 2 SO 4 selectively precipitates Pb 2 + as PbSO 4. Treating the resulting supernatant with H 2 S precipitates Cu 2 + as CuS. After removing the CuS by filtration, ammonia is added to precipitate Fe 3 + as Fe(OH) 3. Nickel, which forms a soluble amine complex, remains in solution. Masking was …

The risk of liquefaction from nickel ore cargo remains high

7.2.3. A cargo shift caused by liquefaction may occur when the moisture content exceeds the TML. Some cargoes are susceptible to moisture migration and may develop a dangerous wet base even if the average moisture content is less than the TML.
