Funded Activity Summary

Carbothermal solid state reduction of manganese ore in hydrogen atmosphere. The aim of the project is to establish mechanisms of solid-state reduction of manganese ore by carbon in hydrogen and effects of gas atmosphere and other operation parameters on the reduction rate. The project will examine carbothermal reduction of manganese ore in hydrogen, helium and argon at different temperatures, ore compositions and sizes. The project's outcomes will be the reduction extent, rate and mechanisms. They will be used to assess the feasibility of solid-state reduction technology. This will be of importance to Australian manganese industry.
