The common iron ore tailings dewatering and treatment methods mainly include iron ore tailings re-selection, iron tailings dry discharge, and iron tailings to fill the mined area, which can recover the valuable minerals in the tailings and the tailings after dry discharge can be reused.
The typical treatment methods for iron ore tailings include stacking and backfilling, which have caused environmental problems such as extensive land occupation and increased storage costs. Additionally, rainwater runoff exacerbates the contamination of soil and groundwater by carrying fine tailings particles that contain excessive levels of ...
1. Introduction. Iron ore resources are extremely rich in China, but most of them belong to complex ultrafine iron ore with high content of impurities [].Reverse flotation has been proved to be an efficient process for economic reasons [2 – 6].In order to ensure iron concentrate grade and iron recovery, a large number of processing reagents are selected and applied in …

The experiment by iron ore tailings as the main raw material, add a small amount of fly ash, coal gangue, limestone and biological admixture, the preparation of iron ore tailings bio-ceramic filter material. The effect of the material proportion and sintering temperature and the ball size on the bio-ceramic filter material processing sewage pollutant removal efficiency was investigated.
Globally, mining operators focus increasingly on tailings filtration to recover process water and store tailings more safely. Generally, required water contents below 20-w% are reached by using filter presses. To maintain high …
In recent years, with the rapid development of the iron and steel industry, the amount of industrial waste gases, wastewater, and waste residues has increased every year [[1], [2], [3], [4]].Among these, the amount of iron ore tailings discharged from concentrators is enormous, and more than 10 billion tons of iron ore tailings and barren rock are discharged …
Iron tailings is one of the main solid waste produced in the process of iron ore development, and is also an important secondary resource.
