Smelting standard grades of manganese ferroalloys from agglomerated thermo-magnetic manganese concentrates

Abstract

Studies have been carried out to investigation the possibility of the agglomeration of thermomagnetic manganese concentrates from the Zhomart and Western Kamys fields (Kazakhstan) with obtaining from them conglomerates suitable for chemical and mechanical properties for subsequent ferroalloy processing. Their metallurgical properties are studied and the principal possibility of obtaining standard grades of manganese alloys from them in laboratory conditions is shown.
