A Comparative Physicochemical Analysis of Plasma-Arc Liquid-Phase Reduction of Titanium Magnetite with Methane and Carbon

摘要

The thermodynamics of reduction of titanium magnetite (Fe oxides >70%, Ti oxides >9%) with carbon and methane at temperatures of 1500-3000 K is considered. The results of the experimental study of plasma-arc liquid-phase reduction of the concentrate from the Gremyakha-Vyrmes deposit are presented. The possibility of obtaining naturally alloyed metal with both low and high concentration of alloying elements, vanadium and titanium included, is demonstrated.
