Platinum (element #78, symbol Pt) is a dense, silvery-gray metal. The platinum group of elements consists of metals with similar physical properties as platinum and these elements are among the rarest in the Earth's crust. They have high melting points, are dense or heavy and are non-reactive with other elements.
ABSTRACT. The behavior of iron ore pellet binders is complex. Any pellet binder is subject to a handful of practical requirements: that it be readily dispersed through a pellet, that it effectively controls the movement of water within the pellet, and that it contributes to the inter-particle bonding within the pellet.

The chart starts with the raw materials like iron ore, coke, and lime being melted in a blast furnace to produce molten iron. Molten iron is then processed in a basic oxygen furnace where it is converted into steel by adding scrap metal and alloys. The final stage on the chart shows the casting process where steel is formed into various shapes ...
Current industrial practice of processing of iron ore fines in India does not involve much beneficiation. However, few plants in India are treating fines during washing, classification, and jigging process [4]. In other parts of the world, iron ore fines are beneficiated for magnetite- and hematite-rich iron ore in * P. Dixit prashant.dixit ...

The iron ore processing plant of Gohar Zamin Iron Ore Company, which is located in the Gol-e-Gohar mine No. 3 (Sirjan–Iran), consists of five units (Fig. 1): (1) the primary crushing unit consists of a Gyratory crusher to reduce the particles size to less than 300 mm; (2) the secondary crushing unit consists of several cone crushers to reduce the …
How Steel Is Made. Steel is primarily produced using one of two methods: Blast Furnace or Electric Arc Furnace. The blast furnace is the first step in producing steel from iron oxides. The first blast furnaces appeared in …
Iron ore sintering consists of heating a layer of fines until partial melting occurs and individual ore particles fuse together. For this purpose, a traveling-grate machine is used, …
The quality of these materials has direct bearing on the process as well as the product. Some plants do not use iron ore directly. These plants use iron ore pellets in the rotary kiln. Raw material mix …
The process gases carbon monoxide ( CO C O) and hydrogen ( H2 H 2) are blown into the furnace at temperatures of approx. 1000 °C and flow through the iron ores. The reduction of iron oxides takes place according to the following chemical equations: Fe2O3 Fe2O3 + 3CO + 3H2 → 2Fe → 2Fe + 3CO2 + 3H2O (1) (2) (1) F e 2 O 3 + 3 C O …
