About 100 L of iron ore beneficiation plant process water was collected from iron ore beneficiation plant located in Odisha state, India. After collection, water was brought to the laboratory and kept in a tank for two days to allow suspended particles to settle down. Further, water was filtered using Whatman 1 filter paper (pore size: 11 μm ...
The iron-making process requires high-quality raw materials, with Fe ≥ 64% and <2% alumina and silica each, to enhance blast furnace productivity at a given energy consumption rate.

The quality of Indian iron ore resources is generally good with high iron content and high percentage of lumpy ore. More than 85% of the hematite ore reserves are of medium …
In general, iron ore beneficiation is done at the mining site. The concentrated iron ore is subsequently sintered or pelletized, depending on the grain size distribution, before it is charged to an ironmaking plant. In cases where after the initial processing steps the iron ore fractions are of inferior quality (too fine or low iron content ...
Iron ore is essential in steel making; however, high-grade ores have diminished, making low-grade ores inevitable. These low-grade iron ores need further beneficiation to upgrade the iron content. Currently, traditional physical and chemical methods are utilized and are not environmentally friendly. Bio-beneficiation techniques have emerged as a sustainable …
Analysis of the current technical solutions for the processing of iron ores showed that the high-grade ores are directly exposed to metallurgical processing; by comparison, low-grade ores, depending on the mineralogical and material composition, are directed to beneficiation including gravitational, magnetic, and flotation processes or their combination. …
Experimental results show that grade of iron ore fines was enhanced by 5.5% in single stage operation with reasonable yield. Experimental results indicate that SBAFS has a huge potential for iron ore fines beneficiation with the added advantage of the reduction of water consumption during the beneficiation process.
Minor sections of this work were presented at Iron Ore 2021 (Nunna et al. 2021b), but the work therein has been significantly expanded upon. A number of references have been given in this paper to Iron ore: Mineralogy, processing and environmental sustainability, ed. L. Lu. Cambridge: Woodhead Publishing.

For the beneficiation of the iron ore, use of air-pulsed jigs is more popular. This is because air-pulsed jigs are capable of generating the large pulse amplitudes required to fluidize a deep bed of the heavy ore, particularly the lump iron ore. The fundamental principle of air-pulsed jigging is the injection of low-pressure air (less than 1 ...
