Recycling pre-oxidized chromite fines in the oxidative sintered pellet production process
(SAIMM, 2019)The chromium (Cr) content of stainless steel originates from recycled scrap and/or ferrochrome (FeCr), which is produced mainly by the carbothermic reduction of chromite ore. The oxidative sintered pellet production process ... -
Techno-economic feasibility of a preoxidation process to enhance prereduction of chromite
(SAIMM, 2017)Ferrochrome (FeCr) is vital for the production of stainless and high-alloy ferritic steels, since it is the only source of new Cr units. FeCr production is an energy-intensive process. The pelletized chromite prereduction ... -
Utilisation of pre-oxidised ore in the pelletised chromite pre-reduction process
(Elsevier, 2016)Ferrochromium is a vital alloy mostly used for the production of stainless steel. It is produced from chromite ore, the only economically exploitable natural chromium resource, through carbothermic smelting in submerged ...
