Separation and recovery of chromium and vanadium from reduced vanadium-chromium precipitate by calcinations-alkaline leaching
Separation and recovery of chromium and vanadium from reduced vanadium-chromium precipitate were implemented by calcination followed by alkaline leaching. The reaction process during calcination and the factors
such as temperature
time and alkaline medium
affecting leaching vanadium were investigated. Cr(Ⅲ) and V(Ⅳ) could form CrVO4
and then CrVO4 was decomposed into Cr2O3 and V2O5 during calcinations. The appropriate conditions for calcination were temperature of 950℃ and time of 1.0—3.0 h. Under the same molarity conditions
NaOH was better than Na2CO3 for leaching V2O5. Increasing NaOH concentration and time was favorable for leaching of V2O5 while temperature had little effect on leaching of V2O5. When reduced vanadium-chromium precipitate was calcined for 1.5 h at 850℃ and was treated for 1.5 h using 3 mol·L-1 NaOH
the content of Cr2O3 in the residue was more than 96%
and leaching rates of vanadium and chromium were 87.3% and less than 1%
respectively. Additionally
97% of vanadium in the filtrate could be precipitated by acidic ammonium salt.
