Abstract: An iron ore refining method in which a secondary reactor (24) is employed for partly reducing iron ore and partly oxidising a carbon containing substance to form partly reduced secondary iron ore, coal char and a calorific gas containing carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide in a ratio of not less than about 0.25. The calorific gas is separated from the partly reduced secondary iron ore and the coal char and the resulting heated solids are introduced into the primary reactor (10) without substantial cooling. All or part of the iron product is formed from the partly reduced iron ore produced in the primary reactor (10). Since the secondary reactor (24) operates at a lower temperature than the primary reactor, part of the iron product is processed at a lower temperature to reduce oxygen requirements for the refining and to increase thermal efficiency. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method for removing a contaminant from a fluid feed stream containing the contaminant. The method includes the steps of providing a feed stream and heating it in a first step to at least partially remove some of the contaminants and recover energy from a concentrate and distillate generated. Further heating the feed stream in a second heating step in a heated separator generates a saturated vapor fraction and a concentrated liquid contaminant fraction. The vapor fraction may be compressed to generate a temperature differential in the reboiler exchanger with the vapor fraction being passed into contact with a reboiler exchanger to provide a stream of condensed vapor from the reboiler. The stream may be circulated through the reboiler exchanger and the heated separator to maintain from about 1% to about 50% by mass vapor in the stream. The apparatus includes a unique configuration of a vapor compressor, heated separator in combination with a forced circulation circuit to generate the decontamination result.

Abstract: Adsorbent particles comprising superparamagnetic and/or low Curie Temperature transition metal-containing cores surrounded by a hydrous siliceous oxide coating can be formed by an aqueous process wherein the core is precipitated from an aqueous solution and a siliceous oxide coating is deposited thereon while complete drying of the core is avoided until after the siliceous oxide is deposited. The resulting siliceous adsorbents exhibit strong superparamagnetic and/or low Curie temperature magnetic properties with low transition metal leachability.
