4. INTRODUCTION Supply of world chromite (chrome ore) has come under severe pressure over the past year driven by strong demand for ferrochrome used in ferroalloy production for making stainless steel. Many of the strategic minerals are inputs into products in fast-changing markets. This Project mainly focuses on the recovery of chromite values from various types of ores and critical issues related to chromite ore beneficiation. Chromium is one of the modern industry’s essential element and important raw material for the production of special steel and ferrochrome alloys. Around 90% of mined chromite ore is converted into different grades of ferrochrome by the metallurgical industry. Page. No -3

5. OBJECTIVE The prediction of rheological properties of the solid–liquid slurry is essential for the control and operation of separation units in the mineral industry. Exploring with varying parameters such as terminal settling velocities, particle’s size, shape, concentration, and surface characteristics. Page. No -4

9. FURTHER INVESTIGATION The critical issues related to the chromite process plants have been categorized as 1. Reducing the tailing losses (9–20% Cr2O3). 2. Beneficiation of low and sub-grade chromite ore (10–30% Cr2O3). 3. Recovery of unrecoverable ultrafine chrome particles. 4. Reprocessing of stockpiled tailings containing valuables. Concentrate with required Cr2O3 content and Cr/Fe ratio. 5. If needed, materials such as chromite, silica and iron mixture can be replaced with any type of minerals. Page. No -8
