R & D

• Preparing representative samples, initial assaying and determining the nature of the iron ore: magnetite, hematite, hematite-magnetite, etc.
• Choosing a beneficiation method based on the nature of the iron ore: magnetic separation, gravity separation, flotation
• Implementing flowsheet processing
• Analyzing processed sample assays using XRF and wet chemistry methods
• Evaluating the economic viability of the iron ore sample

Goal:

    1. Bentonite consumption reduction
    2. Pellet CCS stabilizing by pellet bed optimization in traveling grate (TG)
    3. Pelletizing parameter testing by pelletizing pilot plant (for industrial scale employment)

Common activities:

    1. Weighing and mixing of raw material in mixer based on formulation.
    2. Green pellet production in disc pelletizer
    3. Green pellet screening
    4. Green pellet preheating in TG up to 1050 °C
    5. Pellet firing in rotary kiln up to 1250 °C
    6. Cooling of Pellet
    7. Chemical, physical and mechanical Testing of pellets

Goal:

    1. Pellet Reducibility Testing include
      • Metallization degree percentage (MD)
      • Studying the reduction-disintegration index (RDI)
      • Studying the swelling index of pellets during reduction (RSI)
      • Studying the clustering index of pellets during reduction (CI)
    2. DRI Carbon adjustment by ACT

Common activities:

    1. Screening of pellets
    2. Linder test operation according to ISO 11258
    3. Cluster test operation according to ISO 11257
    4. Chemical and mechanical Testing of DRI

Steel making Pilot

    Various studies have been conducted on utilizing steelmaking slag as an agricultural fertilizer and for rice cultivation, and further research continues in this area.

Feasibility Study Projects

    Establishing small enterprises and industries has emerged as a key consideration in the nation's economic planning. By promoting domestic investment and curbing capital outflows, such initiatives can significantly aid sustainable economic expansion and capital accumulation. In this spirit, the R&D views appraising feasibility studies across diverse sectors - including transportation, steel production, cement, automotive parts and more - as a core responsibility. This design group evaluates proposals for their technical and commercial viability. Through assessing technical feasibility and demand, worthwhile endeavors are elevated for implementation.

Industrial Equipment Design and Manufacturing

    The design and manufacturing of industrial equipment and machinery is another active and reliable subdivision of the R&D department. It aims to rapidly provide the required equipment for company, particularly pilot plants, with the highest reliability. Specialized design and simulation software is used. Some of the equipment designed and manufactured include: pilot HPGR machine with 7t/h capacity, dry magnetic separator with 25 t/h, and micronized milling circuit including a dry ball mill, air separator, and bag filter system.
