Essential Implementation

Maintaining the right moisture content throughout iron ore production is critical. From filtering slurry to rolling ore concentrate—moisture levels must be constantly tested and regulated to ensure the best quality end product is achieved.

Iron ore is a type of mineral that, when exposed to a reductant during heating, produces metallic iron. Iron ore byproducts encompass a range of materials, including iron ore tailings (IOT), ternary oxides like spinel ferrites, and emissions linked to ironmaking. Moreover, the iron and steel manufacturing sectors produce diverse byproducts, among which iron powder is included.

For years, instruments capable of the level of accuracy needed in iron ore production did not exist. This forced the mining industry to resort to using less reliable, time-consuming methods. However with the advancement of technology, moisture testing is reaching higher levels of accuracy and efficiency.

Using MoistTech’s CCS3000, you’ll cut production costs while increasing the quality of your end product. The CCS3000 is energy efficient and low maintenance, saving time and money by reducing start-up and downtime, meaning you’ll produce more quality iron ore.
