  • Nickel Laterite Smelting Processes and Some Examples of Recent Possible Modifications to the Conventional Route
    metals Review Nickel Laterite Smelting Processes and Some Examples of Recent Possible Modifications to the Conventional Route Ender Keskinkilic Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering, Atilim University, 06830 Ankara, Turkey; [email protected]; Tel.: +90-533-302-9510 Received: 16 July 2019; Accepted: 1 September 2019; Published: 3 September 2019 Abstract: The treatment of laterites has been a research hotspot in extractive metallurgy over the past decades. Industrially, the pyrometallurgical treatment of laterites is mostly accomplished with a well-established method, namely, the rotary kiln–electric arc furnace (RKEF) process, which includes three main operations—calcination, prereduction, and smelting—followed by further refining for the removal of impurities from the raw ferro-nickel. As indicated in many studies of the RKEF process, the major downside of this method is its high energy consumption. Efforts have been made to lower this consumption. Furthermore, several new processes have been proposed. Among these, low-grade ferro-nickel production is regarded as the most widely and industrially used process after traditional RKEF operation. Although not widespread, other alternative processes of industrial scale have been generated since the start of the millennium. Recently, certain innovative processes have been tested either in the laboratory or at pilot-scale. In this paper, a literature review related to the smelting of laterites is made, and an emphasis on new processes and some examples of new developments in the RKEF process are presented. Keywords: laterite; smelting; RKEF process; low-grade ferro-nickel 1. Introduction According to a review published by Diaz et al., oxide-type nickel ores accounted for 64% of land-based nickel ores, but more than 60% of nickel production was based on the matte smelting of sulfide ores in 1988 [1].

  • Secondary Lead Smelting at the Beginning of the 21 Century
    Secondary Lead Smelting at the Beginning of the 21st Century Secondary Lead Smelting at the Beginning of the 21st Century Dr. Andreas Siegmund RSR Technologies, Inc. 2777 Stemmons Freeway, Suite 1800 Dallas, TX, USA, 75207 Abstract Close to 85% of all products using lead metals are recyclable. One direct consequence is the conti- nuously rising recycling rate of lead bearing scrap. In 1999, refined lead recovered from secondary materials totaled 2.9 million tonnes, equivalent to 47.2% of total production worldwide or 58.9% in the Western World. The majority of the secondary lead comes from spent lead-acid batteries with the remainder coming from other sources such as lead pipe and sheet. Most of the lead secondaries are recycled pyrometallurgically. During the last two decades, lead recycling experienced many technological innovations, mainly by the addition of physical separation and/or hydrometallurgical processing steps, resulting in a remarkable improvement in the utilization of the components con- tained in batteries. Additional advancements were motivated by the introduction of more stringent environmental legislation and health and safety regulations as well as economical considerations. Developments at commercial primary and secondary lead operations are described, covering these implemented modifications and innovations. Proceedings of EMC 2001 1 Dr. Andreas Siegmund INTRODUCTION Notwithstanding the significantly changing patterns in the market segments, the consumption of lead has steadily grown in most countries, regions and overall over the past three decades. Lead usage as gasoline additive as well as in paint, seals and solder has declined and virtually disap- peared, while products like radiation shielding, sheet for roofing, compounds in the glass and plas- tics industries, insoluble anodes for metal electrowinning have survived and grown.

  • Woodwork in Šumava and the Bavarian Forest
    WANDERINGS THROUGH ŠUMAVA AND THE BAVARIAN FOREST Woodwork in Šumava and the Bavarian Forest 1 Length of Path 1,7 km The old weir on the 98,9th kilometre of the Otava river had been deviating water into several water-powered mechanisms in Baunov (Braunau in German), which lat- er became a part of Dlouhá Ves, since the 18th century. Today, a part of the damaged wooden weir is replaced by an inflatable sack. The weir is almost impassable for ca- noers, as the old wooden crown has nails sticking out of it which can cause damage to passing boats. The earliest depiction of the flume comes from the first military mapping project (1764–1768). Here it powers a water wheel of the local hammer mill (no. 44). In 1788, the mill was owned by Andreas Hatzinger. A point of interest is a hill southeast of the hammer mill, named Einsiedlerey, depict- ed with a chapel and a house, which could potentially be a former hermitage. The ca- dastral map (1824–1843) depicts the flume powering the hammer mill as well as two other mills (house numbers 45 and 46). In those days, the village also boasted a saw- mill and five lordly houses. In 1882, the old hammer mill is purchased by Johannes Schell, originally from the German Hanau am Main, and is rebuilt into a workshop to produce long thin wood- en pieces called wooden wire. In 1885, to- gether with his nephew Theodor Schell, Johannes begins to build a match factory, eventually selling his products under the name Schell & Neffe, Langendorf (Dlouhá Ves).

  • Carroll County Mills A-To-Lee Introduction the 1840 Census Listed
    Carroll County Mills A-to-Lee Introduction The 1840 census listed for Carroll County: 7 fulling mills, 4 paper mills, 68 sawmills, 28 distilleries, 26 tanneries, 3 oil mills, 68 flour and grist mills, and 2 woolen mills. The 1880 census of manufactures showed that there were only 11 predominantly merchant mills versus 48 mostly custom mill in the county. The “Mrs. Barnes list” frequently cited in these entries was worked up by Mrs. Edgar G. (Vivian) Barnes in the mid-1960s as a card file based on the 1862 map by Simon J. Martenet; in some cases, it is difficult to match up mills found on the various maps of 1795, 1808, 1862, and the atlas of 1877, the Rural Free Delivery map, and present geological topographic maps. The Mrs. Barnes list also referenced some undated clippings and sales notices. ABBOT MILL (8) See Lee-Richards Mill.

For us, this expression is not only linked with the topics engineering, environment and nature, but it also stands for everything we do. Particularly in today‘s world, the interaction between these areas needs to be brought more strongly into focus. In order to achieve a balance in our company between these three topics, the ‘ACTING’ of all our employees is decisive and of the greatest importance - because only the human beings can be the link between technology and nature. The Environmental Statement 2017 contains illustrations, data and images that show the work of our employees as regards the implementation of en- vironmental requirements, as well as compliance with environment-related regulations, and they are a testimony to our striving for continuous improvement. A company can only be successful in the long term while at the same time ensuring an intact environment when outstanding technology, economic thinking and responsible ‘ACTING’ of all employees are closely linked. voestalpine Tubulars’ Environmental Team ACTING> ENVIRONMENTAL STATEMENT 2017 OF VOESTALPINE TUBULARS 3 Environmental statement 2017 in accor- dance with Council Regulation EMAS III (1221/2009 + 761/2001 + 196/2006) concerning voluntary participation by commercial organisa- tions in a Community Eco-Management and Audit scheme (EMAS regulation).
