摘要:
A method for the production of an iron-based feedstock suitable for use as the feedstock for steel mills, from industrial waste streams containing iron, by combining an iron poor material such as exhaust fumes from metals production processes with the waste streams, treating the combined waste stream with an ammonium chloride leaching solution, separating the undissolved precipitates comprising iron compounds from the leachant solution, and further treating the undissolved precipitants by elevated temperature roasting, resulting in the iron-based feedstocks.
