The most common commercial process for producing strontium carbonate from celestite ore is the "black ash" process in which ground celestite ore is mixed with finely divided carbon and the mixture calcined at elevated temperatures of about 1000° C. to produce strontium sulfide (SrS), carbon dioxide (CO 2) and carbon monoxide (CO). The water ...
The reaction of ion replacement in mineral species has been the subject of many studies: Booth and Pollard [8] indicated that celestite was converted to pure strontium carbonate by dissolving in fused sodium chloride (not reacting with the ore) and adding sodium carbonate within less than 30 min at 840 °C with maximum conversion. Iwai and Toguri [3] proposed two …
Celestite (SrSO4) is the main economically exploited strontium mineral, serving as the principal source of strontium carbonate (SrCO3)and other strontium derivatives such as SrS SrCl2. Strontium carbonate is a vital industrial reagent used to make glass for color television tubes and ferrite magnets for small DC motors.
Celestite (SrSO 4) is the most common strontium source on earth.Celestite ore can be concentrated by gravity separation or flotation. A typical celestite concentrate contains more than 90% SrSO 4, and its hardness is about 3.5 Mohs, with a specific gravity of 3.96 g/cm 3 [1, 2].Celestite is used directly as drilling mud in oil mining and as filler in paints.
A celestite ore was ground by a planetary ball mill in a highly concentrated sodium carbonate (Na 2 CO 3) solution. The experimental study was carried out to determine the effects of milling time (15, 30, and 45 min) and Na 2 CO 3 concentration (1, 1.25, and 1.5 M) on the particle size and SrCO 3 percentage of the product.
and 8 ppm in the seawater [11]. Celestite (SrSO4) and to a lesser extent strontianite (SrCO3) contain Sr in sufficient quantities to make them a mineral deposit. Iran is exceptionally rich in evaporite deposits [13] which outcrop mostly within Cenozoic carbonate rocks. The strontium deposits and occurrences in Iran occur mostly in the carbonate-
Strontium speciation transferring in strontium residue and mixing strontium ore are investigated with extracting experiment, X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), X-ray fluorescence spectrometer (XRF) and Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS). The results show that there are strontium carbonate, strontium sulfate, strontium sulfide, and a little amount of strontium …
At Jebel Doghara, the celestite ore occurs as stratabound deposit within cap-rock of a diapiric structure of Triassic salt rocks (Souissi et al., 2007). In the Fedj-El-Adoum ore deposit, ore occupies the contact zone of a salt diapir surrounded by the Cretaceous limestone-rich sediments and marls (Charef and Sheppared, 1987).
A novel method for the preparation of strontium carbonate from celestite ore has been investigated. The ore is reduced by brown coal at a temperature of 1000°C for a period of 3 h. The reduced product is leached with water at a liquid: solid ratio of 3: 1 at 90°C and the slurry is then leached with hydrochloric acid at a solid: liquid ratio ...
The invention discloses a method for synthesizing strontium carbonate from celestite by high-temperature static reduction-pressurization conversion. The method comprises the following steps: 1) preparing celestite concentrate and carbon into carbonous pellets, and carrying out reduction roasting in a rotary hearth furnace; 2) when the roasted product is cooled to 200-500 …
A process for preparing strontium carbonate from high-Ba celestite includes metathesis reaction to obtain raw strontium carbonate and separating out barium by use of the mixed solution of strontium nitrate and barium nitrate obtained by acidifying reaction, which has different solubilities at different temp. Its advantages are high Ba removing effect and simple equipment.
study are celestite, blue dust and sodium carbonate. The celestite ore was obtained from Trichirrapalli district of Tamil Nadu (India), which was supplied by M/s J.M. Mines & Minerals, 37, Williams Road, Cantonment, Tamil Nadu (India). The ore was ground to fine powder in a mortar and pestle. The powder was sieved. The fraction

The reduced product is leached with water at a liquid : solid ratio of 3 : 1 at 90°C and the slurry is then leached with hydrochloric acid at a solid : liquid ...
The processes commonly employed for conversion of celestite ore to pure strontium carbonate are, (i) the black ash, and (ii) soda ash processes. In black ash method, reaction is carried out at 1100-1400oC [6]. It is a complicated, energy consuming and a laborious method, while yield of the product is reported about 96%. ...
