«Development of the technology to recover niobium from titanium-magnesium production waste»

Project Manager: Ultarakova A.A.

Relevance: Titanium-magnesium production annually generates thousands of tons of solid waste. Waste reserves in sludge collectors only at Ust-Kamenogorsk Titanium-Magnesium Plant JSC amount to 1270 thousand tons. This waste contains up to 1-2% niobium, which is practically comparable to the niobium content in industrial pyrochlore carbonatite ores. The main objective of the project is to recover niobium from waste (sediments in sludge collectors) into a commercial concentrate that has a high price and is in demand on the world market. The development of this technology also makes it possible to utilize and neutralize waste from titanium-magnesium production, having a beneficial effect on environmental protection.

The project goal is to develop a technology for the recovery of niobium from sediments of a sludge collector of titanium-magnesium production into a demanded commercial concentrate. The project goal will be achieved by mechanical activation of waste before its leaching with alkali and acid solutions, selection of an ion exchanger for sorption and desorption of niobium, precipitation of niobium from solution, and production of concentrate.

Expected results:

- The process of leaching of sludge collector sediments of titanium-magnesium production will be investigated;

- The process of sorption and desorption of niobium from acidic solutions will be investigated;

- The rational process parameters for basic operations of the technology will be determined, and the initial data for the Process Regulations will be issued.

Based on the research results, 3 articles will be published in peer-reviewed scientific journals in the scientific direction of the project, indexed in the Science Citation Index Expanded of the Web of Science database and (or) having a CiteScore percentile in the Scopus database of at least 35 (thirty-five), and 1 article will be published in a peer-reviewed foreign or domestic publication recommended by Committee for Quality Assurance in Education and Science of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

 

Achieved results:

The process of leaching of sludge collector sediments of titanium-magnesium production

has been investigated. The optimal conditions for two-stage acid leaching have been determined. It was found that two-stage hydrochloric acid leaching of the sludge allows removing the main part of impurities, and removing niobium into the solution by 91.5%.

«Improvement of the technology to produce chrome pellets from fine sludges to produce high-carbon ferrochrome»

Project Manager: Бондаренко И.В.

Relevance: The beneficiation technologies applied at JSC DGOK do not allow achieving high chromium oxide recovery due to the high dispersion of chromium-containing compounds in minerals, chemical bonding of chromium oxide with gangue minerals. This leads to a low extraction of chromium oxide in finished concentrates and high losses of it with sludge, up to 30% of its content in the feedstock. In addition, up to 10% of fired pellets obtained at the enterprise are characterized by insufficient strength and are substandard. There is a need to produce strong chrome pellets using new binders. The project is aimed at solving these problems: improving the processes of enrichment of fine chrome sludge by chemical and gravity methods; technologies for producing chrome pellets using ferrosilicic-calcium binders, as well as utilization of sludge from chrome production.

Purpose: Improvement of the technology for the production of chromium materials by enrichment of fine sludge by chemical and gravity methods to obtain a rich chromium concentrate and synthesis of hardened pellets on its basis. At the same time, along with an increase in the extraction of chromium oxide from the feedstock, new technological solutions will make it possible to reduce the pellet firing temperature by 150-200 ° C and to extract magnesium and silicon oxide oxides in the form of ammoshenite and forsterite.

Expected results: The research will:

- investigated the physicochemical characteristics of the passport samples of sludge from chrome production and determined the conditions for their chemical and gravitational enrichment;

- large-scale laboratory tests were carried out on the production from chrome slimes of a batch of complex pellets, ammoshenite and forsterite refractory powder;

- large-scale laboratory tests were carried out to melt fired complex pellets to obtain high-carbon ferrochrome; the initial data for drawing up the Technological Regulations were issued; a preliminary business plan has been prepared.

Based on the research results, 3 articles will be published in peer-reviewed scientific journals, indexed in the Science Citation Index Expanded of the Web of Science database and (or) having a CiteScore percentile in the Scopus database of at least 35, as well as 1 article in a peer-reviewed domestic edition recommended by the Committee for Provision quality in the field of education and science of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

Achieved results:

Carried out the selection of passport samples of chrome slimes with the determination of their granulometric, chemical, mineralogical composition; researches on chemical enrichment of chromium sludge by high-temperature sulfatization with a mixture of sulfuric acid and ammonium sulfate, ammoshenite release were carried out; researches on gravity concentration of sulphated product were carried out to obtain rich chromium concentrate and forsterite product.

The optimal composition of the charge and the conditions for the pelletizing of the composition, consisting of chromium concentrate, fine fractions of special coke, diatomite and calcium silicate compounds to obtain "raw" pellets, have been determined; 3-4 times higher than the compressive strength of the pellets used at JSC DGOK.

«Improvement of methods refining and modification of wear-resistant chromium Cast Iron in terms of use a high proportion of scrap»

Project Manager: Panichkin A.V.

Relevance:

Currently, an increase in the share of the use of scrap metal and other non-traditional raw materials is observed in the iron foundry industry. This is primarily dictated by economic and environmental considerations and is especially important in the case of obtaining products from expensive wear-resistant high-alloy cast irons. Such products include parts of mills and crushers, which, having served their life, can be remelted to obtain similar products. It should be noted that in some cases the loss of metal from wear of such parts does not exceed 10%, especially if the destruction of the grinding body or armor occurs due to the formation of a crack. Considering the colossal volumes of annual use of such equipment in the world, the amount of generated scrap is large and its processing to obtain similar products is relevant. This task is also important for the Republic of Kazakhstan.

 It is known that when smelting cast iron, it is recommended to use no more than 30% of scrap by weight of the charge. This is due to the need to reduce the contamination of the resulting castings with various impurities, including non-metallic inclusions and dissolved gases. An increase in porosity and the proportion of non-metallic inclusions leads to a decrease in the resistance of castings to crack propagation caused by both shock loads and stresses arising in the casting during the cooling stage and often leading to the formation of hot cracks. Hot cracks lead to rejection of a large number of castings. This makes it urgent to study the problem of the formation of porosity and the accumulation of non-metallic inclusions and assess their role in cracking of castings obtained using a high proportion of scrap.

The shape and dispersion of carbide crystals in chromium wear-resistant cast irons determine such important properties as wear resistance, crack resistance, strength, and impact toughness. An increase in the proportion of carbides in the cast iron structure to a certain level increases wear resistance, but decreases toughness and fracture toughness. Increasing the dispersion of eutectic carbides and giving them an equiaxed shape increases wear resistance and toughness. Grinding of carbides and changing their shape during crystallization is possible by various actions on the crystallizing metal, by physical action and modification. Despite the fact that many works have been devoted to the issues of modifying the structure of chromium cast irons under the influence of various factors and added modifiers, the regularities of the complex effect on the parameters of carbides released in alloys of eutectic and hypereutectic compositions during crystallization have not been sufficiently described. This sets the task of conducting research aimed at finding new modifiers, clarifying the modes of modification and thermal treatment of wear-resistant chrome cast iron melts.

 

Purpose:

Development of a scientifically based approach to the selection of refining and modification modes for wear-resistant chromium cast irons obtained using a high proportion of scrap and scrap to ensure minimal contamination of castings with non-metallic particles and increase the mechanical properties of castings.

 

Expected results:

As a result of the project, a scientifically grounded approach will be developed to select the modes of refining and modification of wear-resistant chromium cast irons obtained using a high proportion of scrap and scrap to ensure minimal contamination of castings with non-metallic particles and increase the mechanical properties of castings, including:

- the nature of non-metallic particles in the structure of melts of wear-resistant chromium cast irons will be studied and effective methods for their removal will be developed;

- the effect of modifying additives and thermal treatment of the melt on the structure and properties of wear-resistant chromium cast irons will be studied;

- effective methods of refining and modification of chromium cast iron melts obtained in industrial conditions will be developed and tested.

Based on the research results, at least 3 (three) articles and (or) reviews will be published in peer-reviewed scientific journals indexed in the Science Citation Index Expanded of the Web of Science database and (or) having a CiteScore percentile in the Scopus database of at least 35 (thirty five) ;

At least 1 (one) article or review will also be published in a peer-reviewed foreign or domestic edition recommended by Committee for Control of Education and Science.

 

Results achieved:

Proposed fluxes: MgF2+CaF2, CaF2+B2O3 for refining wear-resistant white chromium cast iron from oxide and sulfide inclusions, protecting them from interaction with the atmosphere during induction melting. New data have been obtained on the effect of temperature (1300-1500 °С) during isothermal treatment of chromium cast iron melts with a carbon content of 2.6 to 4.2 wt.% on the distribution of non-metallic inclusions and porosity. The intervals of cooling rates of chromium cast irons, at which there is an enlargement of non-metallic inclusions of manganese sulfide and nitride, have been determined. It is shown that replacing a CaF2 flux with B2O3 and 50 wt% B2O3 + 50 wt% CaF2 flux promotes a deeper cleaning of a chromium wear-resistant cast iron melt from sulfide (by ~ 75%) and oxide (by ~ 70%) nonmetallic inclusions. The effect of melt desulfurization from the use of a flux of 50 wt.% B2O3 + 50 wt.% CaF2 is comparable to alloying the alloy with silicocalcium CK30 in an amount of 1%. However, the use of fluxes containing B2O3 reduces the life of the induction furnace lining. Nitrogen dissolved in the cast iron melt is removed only by vacuum melting.

«Development of a modified hydrometallurgical technology for extracting copper from off-balance dumps using catalytic biooxidants»

Project Manager: Koizhanova A.K.,

Relevance: This project is aimed at creating a technology capable of solving the environmental problems of copper leaching, as well as increasing the recovery in comparison with the traditional method.

The preliminary production of flotation copper concentrates is also widely used, with the possibility of their further melting or sale. The hydrometallurgical production of cathode copper is currently represented by a small number of enterprises that process oxidized copper raw materials with a low content of interfering iron-bearing minerals, using the standard SX-EW technology. Refractory, off-balance copper raw materials, accumulated in dumps and tailings, in many cases contain significant amounts of ferrous iron compounds, which can seriously complicate the process of extracting copper into a productive solution. Solving this problem by improving the standard liquid-extraction technology will make it possible to involve in industrial processing raw materials of this type, with the receipt of finished products of cathode copper with a purity of at least 99.99%.

 

Project: Development of an improved method of copper sulfuric acid leaching from difficult and refractory dumps, by neutralizing impurities that increase the consumption of sulfuric acid and slow down the dissolution of oxidized copper minerals. Intensification of the copper dissolution process from already oxidized mineral forms and the elimination of raw materials components that hinder the process of leaching will be carried out by introducing oxidizing reagents and bio-catalysts into the process.

 

Expected results.As a result of the research:

- optimized leaching regimes will be worked out, with the selection of oxidizing bio-catalysts concentrations;

- efficiency and completeness of copper extraction into a productive solution using oxidizing and catalyzing biological components will be determined;

- enlarged laboratory tests will be carried out in the full hydrometallurgical cycle;

- preliminary economic efficiency of the use of catalytic biooxidants will be assessed;

- semi-industrial tests of the modernized hydrometallurgical technology for producing cathode copper will be carried out at a plant;

- technological regulations will be drawn up and recommendations for industrial implementation will be issued.

Based on the results of the project, at least 3 (three) articles and (or) reviews will be published in peer-reviewed scientific journals, indexed in Science Citation Index Expanded of the Web of Science database and (or) having a Cite Score percentile in the Scopus data base of at least 35 (thirty five) ; as well as at least 1 (one) article in peer-reviewed foreign and (or) domestic editions recommended by Committee for Quality Assurance in Education and Science of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

 

Achieved results:

A hydrometallurgical technology has been developed for extracting copper from off-balance dumps using catalytic biooxidants. The use of a catalyzing bacterial culture A. Ferrooxidans accelerates oxidative processes and increases the degree of copper extraction by an average of 8-10%.

«Development of equipment for heating and rheological movement of dispersed technogenic and mineral materials in sublimation electric furnaces for dearsenation of raw materials»

Project Manager: Trebukhov S.A.

Relevance: The existing methods of thermal processing of dispersed raw materials (at atmospheric pressure and in a vacuum), predominantly imply forced material movement using rabbling, directed vibration waves, fluidization by gas flow in the reaction zone of sublimation electric furnaces. Concerning vacuum processes, it is problematic to supply a heat flow for heating dispersed material due to the absence of convective flows of the gas phase and maintaining the lowest possible pressure at a high temperature inside electric furnaces for processing dispersed raw materials. The project proposes the development of the design of sublimation equipment, where the movement of the material flow of dispersed material is performed from top to bottom due to rheological properties, and heat is supplied by direct heating of open sections of the processed bulk material due to radiation from the heater.

Project goal: Development of equipment for heating and rheological movement of bulk material and for supplying heat in sublimation vacuum furnaces as applied to the technology of dearsenation of technogenic and mineral raw materials.

Expected results. As a result of achieving the objective and tasks of the project, a pilot unit will be created and tested on a model material and arsenic-containing raw materials. The created equipment will serve as a prototype for the manufacture of the industrial unit applied to the processing of technogenic and mineral arsenic-containing raw materials.

The project results can be used both on the territory of the Republic of Kazakhstan (for example, dearsenation of gold-bearing refractory concentrates from the Bakyrchik, Sayak-IV deposits, etc.) and has an export orientation (dearsenation of local foci of soil pollution/territories of industrial zones around enterprises producing fuchsin (aniline) and others in Switzerland, Poland, the Russian Federation, and some other countries).

Achieved results: As a result of the study in 2021, the temperature rheological characteristics of dispersed arsenic raw materials were determined and the sintering temperatures of dispersed arsenic raw materials were established using the example of arsenic-containing concentrates from 7 deposits at atmospheric pressure and in vacuum.

For the unification of the developed equipment for the sublimation processing of arsenic containing raw materials in a vacuum, the angle of inclination of the guides or the angle of the generatrix of the cone with respect to the horizontal should be at least 55 degrees. The latter is a fundamental condition for the constructive development of the process of rheological movement of material in the sublimation space.

It was found that the sintering temperatures of arsenic-containing concentrates fluctuate within 800-1000°C, which makes it possible to implement the process of rheological displacement in the technological cycle. For concentrates with a lower sintering temperature, a granulation process can be recommended, which can increase the sintering threshold by 50-100°C.

2 variants of the evaporator design are proposed: the first of them is made in the form of a column formed by conical guide surfaces, the larger base of which is directed upward, the second - downward. The first of them is preferable for equipment with low productivity, the second opens up the possibility of scaling, since several columns made of truncated cones with a large base downward can be installed inside the evaporator, which provides sufficient conditions for removing the vapor phase from a significant volume of dispersed material.

Methods for supplying heat flux and constructive placement of heaters for both proposed versions of evaporators for processing dispersed sulphide materials have been developed. The design of the heaters has been developed and the materials for their manufacture have been proposed. Thermal tests of potential materials for the resistance body of heaters have shown that the current density of 1 A/mm2 for graphite and up to 8-9 A/mm2 for the specified steel provides heating of the resistance body up to 1000-1100°C, with a voltage drop of 10-12 and 10 V/m (respectively).

The performed research and design developments are sufficient for the preliminary design of a sublimation unit with rheological material movement in a vacuum volume.
