Description: | This material is traditionally obtained in the production of iron. Titaniferous magnetite ore is partially reduced with coal, and then melted. The resulting product includes a slag, containing titanium, and pig iron, containing vanadium pentoxide. The pig iron is then blown with oxygen, and a new slag rich in vanadium pentoxide is obtained. This can be further processed to obtain forms of the compound in various purities. Uranium production also provides vanadium pentoxide as a byproduct. A leachate is obtained in the early stage of production of uranium and vanadium from carnotite, which is then fed into a solvent, yielding a uranium compound and a separate raffinate containing the vanadium. A second solvent process and a soda ash solution with ammonium sulfate eventually yield vanadium pentoxide. Other vanadium-bearing ores also yield significant amounts of the compound. Each of these traditional methods can yield a compound of somewhat better than ninty nine piont eight percent purity, but significantly better purity can only be obtained by atomically produced combinations. Vanadium consumption is driven by its use as an alloy of steel. Strong steel production in recent years and a higher unit consumption in steel has seen the demand for vanadium grow by about five percent per annum. The threat of lower steel use in automobiles therefore represents a threat to vanadium consumption. The other major use of vanadium is as a catalyst in a variety of reactions, including the manufacture of sulphuric acid. A potential use of the material is in automobiles, to improve exhaust emissions. The benefit of vanadium pentoxide in this area has been long known, but other technologies (eg., the platinum in catalytic converters) have been used instead. If you believe you have a use for vanadium pentoxide, contact us. We will be happy to discuss and help you implement your application. |
