Oct 25, 2016 The rotary kiln-electric furnace process is the one of the most widely adopted technological process for ferronickel smelting production. A schematic of the RKEF process with rotary dryer, rotary kiln and electric furnace is shown in Fig. 1.As depicted, the RKFF process involves three main processes: the dehydration process in rotary dryer; the roasting and pre-reduction process in rotary kiln

Jan 01, 2009 Since the 1950's, production of ferronickel from laterites has predominantly been achieved using the Rotary Kiln -Electric Furnace (RKEF) process. The productivities of kilns and furnaces have increased steadily over the years and metallurgical smelters can now rely on a smaller number of high-powered, reliable units to meet production
