A survey of Cr(VI) contamination of surface water in the proximity of ferrochromium smelters in South Africa
(WRC, 2014)
South Africa holds approximately three-quarters of the world’s viable chromite ore reserves and is one of the largest ferrochrome producers. It is impossible to completely exclude oxygen from all high-temperature ferrochrome ...
Theoretical and practical aspects of Cr(VI) in the South African ferrochrome industry
(SAIMM, 2010)
The production of ferrochrome alloy from chromium bearing
chromite ores is conducted at high temperature under highly
reducing conditions. However, albeit completely unintended, it is
impossible to completely exclude ...
Treatment of Cr(VI)-containing wastes in the South African ferrochrome industry: a review of currently applied methods
(SAIMM, 2012)
South Africa holds approximately three-quarters of the world’s
viable chromite ore resources and dominates the global production
of ferrochrome. Albeit completely unintended, small amounts of
Cr(VI) are formed during ...
Comparison of physical properties of oxidative sintered pellets produced with UG2 or metallurgicalgrade South African chromite: a case study
(SAIMM, 2015)
The physical properties of oxidative sintered pellets produced from typical
South African UG2 ore are compared with the physical properties of pellets
produced with conventional South African metallurgical-grade chromite
ore ...
Conductivity as an indicator of surface water quality in the proximity of ferrochrome smelters in South Africa
(WRC, 2015)
South Africa is one of the leading ferrochrome (FeCr) producing countries. One of the main environmental and healthrelated
issues associated with FeCr production is the possible generation of Cr(VI). However, Cr(VI) is ...
