Physical Separations for Rare-Earth Beneficiation of the

First, low-intensity magnetic separation (LIMS) was assessed to remove iron oxides from the heavy mineral gravity concentrate. The non-magnetic fraction was then processed using a WHIMS to determine if the various REMs could be effectively separated from zircon. ... However, upgrading was impacted after each subsequent pass and the grade of ...

Upgrading of oil sand bitumen over an iron oxide catalyst …

Upgrading of oil sand bitumen was examined using a catalyst consisting of CeO 2 –ZrO 2 –Al 2 O 3 –FeO X and sub- and super-critical water in two reactor types: batch-type and fixed-bed flow-type. Bitumen diluted with benzene was used as a feedstock, and the effects of reaction pressure and temperature on product yield were investigated.

Experimental investigation on magnetic-gravity …

In the past few decades, flotation has been fully researched, and it has been widely used in iron ore upgrading. Iron ore flotation generally adopts two technical routes: iron oxide direct flotation and reverse flotation of gangue minerals inhibited by iron oxides. Nowadays, reverse flotation is the most commonly used route in iron ore flotation.
