Abstract
Processing industrial products and technogenic waste is an urgent task in mining and metallurgical industry. In Kazakhstan, processing of chrome ores of the Kempirsay group of deposits creates more than 15 million tons of sludge tailings with a chromium oxide content of up to 30 wt. %. The best results of processing fine chrome raw materials are demonstrated by Turkish enterprises that use sludge separation by size classes and enrichment on concentration tables. The authors performed a research on Dubersay tailing dump chromium sludge enrichment (Kazakhstan) using similar technological approaches, which allowed to obtain concentrates containing 51 wt.% Chromium oxide and increase the yield of rich fine chromium concentrates by 14 % compared to the existing enrichment scheme.
