Self-organizing jet emulsion reactor (SER), during generation of which some principles of theory of self-organization and a number of interesting physical effects were used, is of certain degree of universality. Pilot installation has demonstrated possibility of implementing several low-energy and even waste-free technologies on it, including: direct reduction of dust-type ores and waste without agglomeration, production of manganese alloys from poor dust-type concentrates, waste-free separation of titanium-magnetite concentrates into metal and conditioned titanium slag, etc.
Presented report focuses on technology of direct reduction of manganese in JESI from dust-type ores and concentrates, including oxidized and carbonate ones. Specifics of technology is generation of full cycle of combustion products recycling, which allow for preliminary recovery or roasting of manganese ores in fluosolid unit connected to the output of the main unit, and reduction of energy costs for production of manganese alloys.
