The typical red sediment deposit, on average, consists of 71.8% total heavy minerals （THM）, out of which 62.1% are ilmenite. The other heavy minerals sillimanite, zircon, garnet, monazite, and pyriboles are in the order of abundance identified. In this present study, Mozley mineral separator has been used to recover THM from red sediment. Mineral separator results indicate that a product ob- tained contains 72.2% by weight with 94.4% THM and 95% recovery. The ilmenite concentrate recov- ered using dry low-intensity magnetic separator from the THM concentrate can be used in pigment in- dustries after suitable pyrometallurgical/chemical processing methods.展开更多

Therefore, inhibiting sediment nutrient release seems necessary. In this study, red soil （RS） was employed to control the nutrients released from a black-odorous river sediment under flow conditions. The N and P that were released were effectively controlled by RS capping. Continuous-flow incubations showed that the reduction efficiencies of total N （TN）, ammonium （NH4＋-N）, total P （TP） and soluble reactive P （SRP） of the overlying water by RS capping were 77%, 63%, 77% and 92%, respectively, and nitrification and denitrification occurred concurrently in the RS system. An increase in the water velocity coincided with a decrease in the nutrient release rate as a result of intensive water aeration.展开更多
