Funded Activity Summary

A study of wettability and reduction behaviour in carbothermal production of manganese alloys. The project's ultimate aim is to develop a comprehensive understanding of reactions between carbonaceous materials and molten slag relevant to carbothermal reduction of manganese ore. It will be achieved through experimental study of dynamic wettability and interfacial properties of the carbon - slag system for variety of carbonaceous materials and slag compositions. Reduction behaviour of different manganese ores will also be examined in conjunction with the wettability study. The projects findings will be of importance to carbothermal reduction processes, which are major technologies in ferrous metallurgy, and to further development of the manganese alloys industry in Australia.
