  1. 1. Properties of Ugandan minerals and fireclay refractories

    Author : John Baptist Kirabira; Stefan Jonsson; Thomas Johansson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Materials science; kaolin; clay; Ugandan minerals; fireclay; refractory; powders characterization; beneficiation; ceramics; mullite; Materialvetenskap; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : Development of products which can be produced from a country’s natural resources is very important as far as the industrialization of a nation and saving foreign exchange is concerned. Presently, industries in Uganda and the other states in the Lake Victoria region import all refractory-related-consumables, as the demand cannot be met locally. READ MORE

  2. 2. Aspects of Ash Transformations in Pressurised Entrained-Flow Gasification of Woody Biomass : Pilot-scale studies

    Author : Charlie Ma; Marcus Öhman; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; woody biomass; gasification; ash transformation; slag behaviour; refractory corrosion; Energiteknik; Energy Engineering;

    Abstract : Pressurised entrained-flow gasification (PEFG) of woody biomass has the potential to produce high purity syngas for the production of vital chemicals, e.g., biofuels. However, ash-related issues such as reactor blockages and refractory corrosion need to be addressed before this potential can be realised from a technical perspective. READ MORE

  3. 3. Degradation mechanisms in refractory lining materials of rotary kilns for iron ore pellet production

    Author : Jesper Stjernberg; Marc Huger; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Materialteknik; Engineering Materials;

    Abstract : Iron is one of the most important resources in the lithosphere; 90% of all metal ores extracted are based on iron. Many steps are included in the extraction of iron from ore, with extraction processes varying among different producers. Iron ore pellets are a prepared burden material for ironmaking in the blast furnace or by direct reduction. READ MORE

  4. 4. Investigation of Interactions between Liquid Iron Containing Oxygen and Aluminosilicate Refractories

    Author : Era Kapilasharmi; KTH; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The present work was initiated to investigate runnerrefractory corrosion by molten steel. The aim was to understandthe mechanism of inclusion formation during ingot casting. Thework is also of interest to other unit processes in steelmaking, where refractory corrosion and erosion are seriousproblems. READ MORE
