20130243673 | SEPARATION OF TUNGSTEN FROM AMMONIUM MOLYBDATE SOLUTIONS - Disclosed is process for the separation of tungsten from molybdenum and more particularly from ammonium molybdate solutions. The method comprises dissolving technical grade molybdenum trioxide in an aqueous ammonium hydroxide solution and further adding certain metal generating compounds to the aqueous solution thereby generating a tungsten-containing precipitate. Calcium, iron and manganese are the preferred metal generating compounds of the invention. Certain temperature and pH values of the system, as disclosed, are preferred for the precipitation of the tungsten from the ammonia molybdate solution. | 09-19-2013 |
20130155581 | RETRIEVAL OF HIGH VALUE REFRACTORY METALS FROM ALLOYS AND MIXTURES - Recovery of a metal from scrap materials or other source materials containing two or more metals or other materials by iodization of the materials or parts of them to create multiple metal iodides of respective metals, separating the iodides and dissociating at least one of the iodides to recover its metal component. | 06-20-2013 |
20120034154 | PRODUCTION OF HYDROGEN THROUGH OXIDATION OF METAL SULFIDES - Utilization of process and equipment for oxidation of metal sulfides, preferably two step metal sulfide oxidation reactions, and more preferably with looping back of second step oxide to the first step as an oxidizing agent, to generate sulfur dioxide and a useful metal or metal oxide, and react the sulfur dioxide with halogen (iodine or bromine) and water to produce sulfuric and halogen acid under moderate process conditions and equipment requirements and then dissociating the halogen acids (HI or HBr) to halogen and hydrogen as an overall environmentally and cost efficient and otherwise acceptable safe process for producing hydrogen and other useful products. | 02-09-2012 |
20080260612 | Oxidation of metallic materials as part of an extraction, purification and/or refining process - Multi-step metal compound oxidation process to produce compounds and enhanced metal oxides from various source materials, e.g. metal sulfides, carbides, nitrides and other metal containing materials with metal oxides from secondary reaction steps being utilized as an oxidation agent in the first reactions. | 10-23-2008 |
