The ChromEx Process

For maximum chrome recovery

Chromex Process for Chrome and Ferrochrome

The ChromEx process is developed to reduce the overall tailings grade, while producing a saleable product.

Chrome Ore

In chrome ore, the system is customised to produce metallurgical grade, chemical grade and foundry sand products.

For metallurgical and chemical grades, the ChromEx process targets unrecovered chrome, mainly present in ultrafine material, producing a 38-43% Cr2O3 product. The targeted tailings grade for this process is less than 10% Cr2O3.

Ferrochrome

In Ferrochrome the system is developed to recover Ferrochrome metal from slag, produce a product of up to 50% Cr at a slag content below 2%.

PGMs

In PGMs the ChromEx is developed to reduces chrome content from PGM concentrates by recovering residual chrome.

Utilising the ChromEx offers a low carbon footprint, recovery of both fines and ultrafine material, low water consumption and low electricity consumption.

Look at it differently

The ChromEx process enables our clients to maximize their much-needed production outputs, which translates to additional revenue.

The additional gain emanates from reduced environmental liability due to reduced tailings quantity. The reduced tailings quantity also reduces operating costs such as tailings deposition, transportation, diesel etc.

The low plant footprint means reduced capital outlay.

Our team of engineers offer a free process evaluation. During this process we will look at things differently and find opportunities to:

Increase production
Reduce electricity and water consumption
Improve product quality
Reduce your environmental liability

Green Technology

Our green technology offers low process water and energy consumption, reducing your eco footprint while boosting revenue.

Material Recovery

The ChromEx process targets unrecovered chrome, mainly present in ultrafine material, producing a 38-43% Cr2O3 product.

Reduce Product Loss

The ChromEx process is developed to reduce the overall tailings grade, while producing a saleable product.

Increased Revenue

By offering higher throughput at a lower installation cost and footprint, you save money in the short and long term.
