Abstract

The researchers aim to shed light on the economic importance of the Egyptian black sands and the economic minerals extracted from them, and to determine the global and Egyptian reserves from them. The study also deals with raising the added value of ilmenite extracted from Egyptian black sand in order to produce ferotitanium alloy, and prepare an integrated vision to determine the possibility of establishing industrial projects to raise the economic value of ilmenite through the application of methods used in rationalizing costs, using the descriptive analytical method in order to increase the national product accordingly. This study was applied to the black sands of the Rosetta site in the North Delta, which is one of the field work sites of the Nuclear Materials Authority. Ferrotitanium alloy is one of the most widely used alloys in the steel and stainless steel industries, the paint industry, and the missile and aircraft industry. The study concluded that it is possible to increase the revenue generated from the production of ferotitanium alloy and raise the economic added value of ilmenite by using raw materials in different mixing methods that lead to rationalization of costs, achieving sustainable development goals and increasing national income. The researchers recommend expanding the application of the proposal to use the shredder machine in extracting the aluminite metal due to the rationalization of costs, an increase in the revenue, and raising the added value of the aluminite mineral, the need to maintain the quality of production and the introduction of continuous improvements to rationalize the indirect costs, as well as the necessity to supply the Nuclear Materials Authority with supplies, tools and devices used in the exploration of black sand areas throughout Egypt, and the use of fuel derived from solid waste plastic (RDF) instead of natural gas to save energy costs.
