Abstract of the dataset | This dataset supports the study “Applying Engineered Artificial Mineral (EnAM) Concept from Lab to Pilot Scale: Lithium Aluminate in Lithium-Bearing Slag Systems”. It contains experimental and processed data of a 125 kg pilot-scale slag (Slag P). The data comprise, X-ray diffraction phase analysis, micro-X-ray fluorescence (µXRF) elemental maps, X-ray computed tomography (XCT) volumes, and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) measurements. Derived data include segmented EnAM-rich clusters, cluster size and circularity, centroid-based nearest-neighbour distances, three-dimensional anisotropy, and individual lithium aluminate grain properties. The dataset enables investigation of scale-dependent changes in lithium-bearing phase formation, spatial distribution, clustering and intergrowth. µXRF and XCT data describe EnAM-rich clusters, whereas EBSD data resolve individual crystallographic grains. Documentation identifies sample positions, measurement conditions, processing procedures and the provenance of laboratory-scale comparison data. | |

Title of the dataset | Research data for "Multiscale Characterisation of Lithium Aluminate in Laboratory- and Pilot-Scale EnAM Slags" | |
Project abstract | The research investigates the Engineered Artificial Mineral (EnAM) concept for recovering valuable elements from metallurgical slags. By controlling slag composition and cooling conditions, target elements are concentrated in mineral phases with properties suited to subsequent liberation and separation. This study evaluates the transfer of lithium aluminate formation from laboratory-scale to pilot-scale slag production. Complementary characterisation methods are used to assess how scale-up affects phase composition, spatial distribution, cluster morphology, phase intergrowth and individual grain structure. | |
