Abstract

The obtaining process of sulfuric acid, that involves roasted of pyrite ores, leads to accumulation of a significant amount of secondary matter known as pyrite ash. This waste, that is found worldwide in quantities of millions of tons, it is highlighted by his chemical composition, based on the presence of high concentrations of hematite and magnetite. By implementing worldwide of the concept of circular economy, the use of pyritic ash as an alternative source of iron is a topic of current interest. This study is proposing to present the latest trends in the methods of valorization of pyritic ash that are presented in the specialty literature, which can be implemented in various branches of industry.
