    A Study on Recovery of Iron from Red Mud by Solid State Reduction Followed by Magnetic Separation
    (Springer international Publishing Ag, 2020) Eray, Said; Keskinkilic, Ender; Varol, Mustafa; Topkaya, Yavuz A.; Geveci, Ahmet
    Red mud is a waste material of the Bayer process for alumina production from bauxite ore. Red mud is generally pumped to disposal in an artificial pond which is accompanied by great land occupation and environmental issues. Many researches in different fields have been carried out to evaluate the red mud. Of these, researches on recovering valuable metals from red mud are the most successful. In this study, recovery of iron, which is the most abundant metal in red mud, was investigated. A red mud sample with 34% Fe2O3 was used. Solid state carbothermic reduction followed by wet magnetic separation was performed to recover iron. Reduction was carried out at temperatures 1000-1200 degrees C. Reduced samples were ground and subjected to wet magnetic separation. The effect of reduction temperature and grinding time were investigated on the metallization of iron and the iron content of the final concentrate.

    Reduction Behavior of Iron in the Red Mud
    (Technical Faculty, Bor-serbia, 2021) Eray, S.; Keskinkilic, E.; Topkaya, Y. A.; Geveci, A.
    Red mud or bauxite residue contains significant quantities of industrial metals such as Fe, Al, and Ti, as well as rare earth elements such as Sc, Ce, and La. The authors performed a laboratory-scale project dealing with stepwise recovery of valuable elements from two bauxite residues, namely Iranian red mud (IRM) and Turkish red mud (TRM). The first stage involved the recovery of iron which was present in large quantities in red mud. Two different methods were investigated for this purpose: 1) solid state reduction followed by wet magnetic separation and 2) smelting. In the scope of this paper, some results of pyrometallurgical part of this project are presented. According to solid-state reduction experiments, it was found that more excess coal was needed for IRM (35%) than for TRM (15%) to maximize iron reduction. Temperature had significant effect on the reduction process and metallization increased from about 70% to about 95% when the temperature was raised from 1000 to 1200 degrees C. Metallization degree was reported to be slightly higher for IRM (96.2%) than for TRM (94.1%). The results demonstrated that a high degree of iron metallization can be achieved regardless of the chemical and mineralogical composition of the bauxite residue sample.

    Calcination Characteristics of Laterite Ores From the Central Region of Anatolia
    (Southern African inst Mining Metallurgy, 2012) Keskinkilic, E.; Pournaderi, S.; Geveci, A.; Topkaya, Y. A.; Metallurgical and Materials Engineering
    Drying, calcination, prereduction, and smelting are the main steps in conventional crude ferronickel production. Industrially, these steps are conducted using the rotary kiln-electric arc furnace (RKEF) process. In this paper, calcination characteristics of Sivrihisar laterite ores from the Central Anatolia region are investigated. The extent of elimination of chemically bound water and other volatiles was studied by experiments conducted at various temperatures in the 250-800 degrees C range. Phase changes were examined using X-ray diffractometry. For the particle size used in the study, 300 degrees C was determined to be almost sufficient for complete transformation of goethite to haematite, and 700 degrees C was required for effective elimination of all volatiles in the ore.

    Use of Colemanite in Ferronickel Smelting
    (Technical Faculty, Bor-serbia, 2019) Keskinkilic, E.; Pournaderi, S.; Geveci, A.; Topkaya, Y. A.
    Use of colemanite in metal-slag systems aims primarily to decrease the viscosity of slag and, therefore, achieve better metal-slag separation. Enhanced metal-slag separation is helpful to decrease the number of suspended metal/alloy droplets in slag, i.e. the physical losses. In the literature, successful use of colemanite was reported both in steelmaking and copper matte smelting processes. Ferronickel smelting slags contain nickel in the range of 0.1-0.2% and correspondingly, metal-slag distribution ratio values of nickel are reported even above 200. On the contrary, nickel recoveries are hard to exceed 95%. This can be mostly attributed to the physical losses of nickel due to very high slag volume in ferronickel smelters; for 1 ton of ferronickel, 10-15 tonnes of slag are generated regardless of the type of the laterite, which contains significant quantity of ,gangue components. The authors thought that use of colemanite could be a solution to decrease physical losses. Therefore, the use of colemanite in ferronickel smelting was investigated in the present work. Laboratory-scale smelting experiments were conducted using calcined and prereduced laterites in a vertical tube furnace under different gas atmospheres. The amount of colemanite added was in the range of 0 - 2.5% of the total charge. The experiments were also performed using ferronickel and slag samples obtained from a ferronickel smelter.

    Calcination Behavior of Sivrihisar Laterite Ores of Turkey
    (John Wiley & Sons, 2011) Keskinkilic, Ender; Pournaderi, Saeid; Geveci, Ahmet; Topkaya, Yavuz A.
    This study investigated calcination behavior of one of the Turkish laterite deposits, which was recently found in Sivrihisar region. Representative limonitic laterite samples (1.26% Ni) taken from Yunusemre Karasivritepe and Kucuksivritepe location were first subjected to drying. Removal of chemically bound water and other volatiles were then studied, in detail. In the calcination experiments, temperature and time were the main experimental variables. Thermal treatment was conducted at the specific temperatures in 250 degrees C - 800 degrees C range. The weight losses due to elimination of chemically bound water and other volatiles were reported to be approximately 10 per cent of the weight of the ore. For the particle size used in the current work, 700 degrees C and 40 minutes were determined to be the optimum calcination temperature and time, respectively.

    Recent Studies on Hot Metal Desulfurization
    (Springer international Publishing Ag, 2022) Keskinkilic, Ender
    Hot metal desulfurization station is an indispensable part of a modern integrated iron and steelmaking company. In this plant, roughly speaking, at least ninety percent of sulfur in hot metal is eliminated before basic oxygen steelmaking. In the conventional process, stable sulfide-making additives of various kinds and forms are introduced to the hot metal present in torpedo cars or more commonly in ladles. Together with desulfurization reactions, a slag rich in sulfides is collected at the top, and it is then skimmed out. Other than hot metal treatment stage, further removal of sulfur may be accomplished in secondary steelmaking, depending primarily on suitability of metallurgical conditions in that specific vessel. In this literature work, recent experimental studies related to hot metal desulfurization are reviewed. More emphasis shall be on the works performed after the millennium and specifically in the last decade, including the ones offering new and novel methods.

    Nickel Laterite Smelting Processes and Some Examples of Recent Possible Modifications to the Conventional Route
    (Mdpi, 2019) Keskinkilic, Ender
    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.

    Smelting Studies for Recovery of Iron From Red Mud
    (Springer international Publishing Ag, 2019) Keskinkilic, Ender; Pournaderi, Saeid; Geveci, Ahmet; Topkaya, Yavuz A.
    Red mud can be regarded as a by-product of aluminium extraction process since it contains a significant amount of iron and some valuable elements. Therefore, the treatment of red mud has been a hot topic for some decades. The authors have recently started a laboratory-scale project dealing with stepwise recovery of valuable elements from red mud of Seydisehir Aluminum Plant, Turkey. The first step is related to recovery of iron and pyrometallurgical methods (smelting and solid-state reduction) will be performed. Nonferrous metals will then be selectively leached in the second step. In the extent of the present work, a literature review relevant to the smelting studies for recovery of iron from red mud was presented.

    Laboratory-Scale Smelting of Limonitic Laterite Ore From Central Anatolia
    (Southern African inst Mining Metallurgy, 2017) Pournaderi, S.; Keskinkilic, E.; Geveci, A.; Topkaya, Y. A.
    The feasibility of ferronickel production from a low-grade limonitic laterite ore was investigated. The ore was first calcined and then prereduced in the solid state. The reduced ore was then smelted to produce ferronickel. The effects of coal addition, smelting temperature, and retention time on the process were investigated. Chemical and physical losses in the slag were separately quantified. Coal addition was the main parameter that controlled the ferronickel grade and losses in the slag. The melting point of the slag was well below that of the ferronickel, which enhanced metal-slag separation and minimized physical losses in the slag. A microstructural study of an industrial slag revealed that Cr-rich particulates, which were suspended in the slag, were mainly responsible for the physical losses in the slag.
