The primary objective of this manuscript is to demonstrate an efficient and optimum way to recover chromium and iron from COPR in ...

The current strategy reports the recovery of precious group metals (PGMs) from Na2CO3 roast of Saudi Arabian ophiolitic chromite ore at 1160 °C under atmospheric O2. The influence of roasting temperature (960–1200 °C) and leaching agents (H2O, HCl, H2SO4) and their concentrations on the recovery of PGMs was studied. Chromite roast concentrates a …

Chromium ore occurs exclusively in rocks formed by the intrusion and solidification of molten lava or magma which is very rich in the heavy, iron containing minerals such as pyroxenes and olivines. The chromium spinel is a heavy mineral and it concentrates through gravity separation from most of the other molten material in the magma during ...

Chromium ore processing residue (COPR) has been disposed at hundreds of sites in the US mid-Atlantic Region, including major transportation corridors, harbors, and facilities.
