QIT stands for Quebec Iron and Titanium. QIT owns
an ilmenite mine in northeastern Quebec.
The ore is shipped to Tracy where it is processed into
titanium dioxide slags, iron, steel billets and steel
autoparts.
This dust comes from the dust collecting system of
the steelmelting department and has the following
general formula:

FE2O3 85%
SIO2 5.0%
CAO 5.0%
MGO 1.0%
ZNO 2.0%
CARBON 2.0%
TOTAL 100%

It was 170 mesh sieved.

A theoritical substitution is as follows for each
1% of the stuff :

Red Iron Oxide 0.820
Silica 0.050
Whiting 0.060
Dolomite 0.050
Zinc oxide 0.020
Total 1.000

This dust may be substituted by Ferric Oxide

acier et pièces automobiles entre autres.
Cette poussière provient du système anti-pollution
de son acierie, et a la formule générale suivante:


FE2O3 85%
SIO2 5.0%
CAO 5.0%
MGO 1.0%
ZNO 2.0%
CARBONE 2.0%

Ce déchet a été tamisé à 170 mailles.


La substitution théorique suivante peut s’appliquer
pour chaque 1% de cette matière :

Oxyde de Fer Rouge 0.820
Silice 0.050
Carbonate de Calcium 0.060
Dolomie 0.050
