    Recycling Bauxite Waste for the Mineral Industry: Phase Transformations and Microstructure During Sintering

    Raw materials of mineral industries are mainly in the form of ore, which generate fine mineral particles during the extraction, comminution and transport which are primarily regarded as non-recyclable waste. T...

    Modelling and Design of a Refractory Lining for a Biomass Gasification Reactor Fed by a Plasma Torch

    The biomass gasification process is devoted to the production of electricity from waste and biomass. The gas, obtained by this technique, cannot be used efficiently if it contains tars. A new type of installat...

    The effect of the addition of fine andalusite particles in refractory bricks on gaseous corrosion

    In the past, the mechanisms of corrosion in refractory materials used in the flue wall of anode baking furnaces have been poorly understood. To better understand the processes of degradation, a study of corrod...
