Riassunto

Iron Ore: Mineralogy, Processing and Environmental Sustainability, Second Edition covers all aspects surrounding the second most important commodity behind oil. As an essential input for the production of crude steel, iron ore feeds the world's largest trillion-dollar-a-year metal market and is the backbone of the global infrastructure. The book explores new ore types and the development of more efficient processes/technologies to minimize environmental footprints. This new edition includes all new case studies and technologies, along with new chapters on the chemical analysis of iron ore, thermal and dry beneficiation of iron ore, and discussions of alternative iron making technologies.

In addition, information on recycling solid wastes and P-bearing slag generated in steel mills, sustainable mining, and low emission iron making technologies from regional perspectives, particularly Europe and Japan, are included. This work will be a valuable resource for anyone involved in the iron ore industry.

• Provides an overall view of the entire value chain, from iron ore to metal
• Includes specific information on process/stage/operation in the value chain
• Discusses challenges and developments, along with future trends in the iron ore and steel industries
• Incorporates new, sustainable mining techniques

Dalla quarta di copertina

Iron ore is regarded as the second most important commodity behind oil. As an essential input for the production of crude steel, iron ore feeds the world's largest trillion-dollar-a-year metal market and is the backbone of the global infrastructure. In order to satisfy our growing demand for steel products, world iron ore production has increased drastically since 2000. As a result, traditional high grade iron ore reserves are depleting significantly and many new iron ore deposits of lower grade and more complicated mineralogy are being mined.

Since publication of the first edition these significant market changes and technological developments in the iron ore and steel industries prompted the need for a need edition to be produced to explore these new ore types and the development of more efficient processes/technologies to upgrade and utilise the new ore types while minimising their environmental foot prints. Among the updates to this new edition are the inclusion of all new case studies and technologies; the addition of new chapters on chemical analysis of iron ore; thermal and dry beneficiation of iron ore; and discussions of alternative iron making technologies. Also, information on recycling solid wastes and P-bearing slag generated in the steel mills, sustainable mining, and low emission iron making technologies from regional perspectives, particularly Europe and Japan have been included in Section 4. This work will be a valuable resource for any individuals involved in the iron ore industry.
