The influence of microwave heating on the grinding of Panzhihua ilmenite ore was investigated. Factors that influence the processing are: the microwave exposure time, power density and sample mass. 40 g sample was microwave heated for 30 s with 1 kW of microwave power and followed by water quenching. SEM analysis indicated that intergranular fractures occurred between ores and gangues other than transgranular fractures after microwave treatment, which would liberate minerals from each other effectively. The subsequently magnetic separation trials provided evidence that the recovery rate increased from 44% for raw ore to 72% by microwave treatment.
研究攀枝花低品位钛精矿的球磨活化-微波还原。采用激光粒度及X衍射研究不同球磨条件下钛铁矿的粒度和物相变化并进行分析,结果表明磨矿活化使矿物颗粒逐渐减小、特征峰宽化、晶粒变细;研究了活化物料的升温和还原行为,并对还原产物微观形貌和物相进行分析,表明活化物料有良好的微波吸收性能和还原效应。证实在反应过程中存在"热点"。球磨8 h的混合物料在温度900℃、反应时间30 m in条件内金属化率超过90%。
