extraction of vanadium from its ore

Vanadium Extraction Process

The extraction and recovery process of vanadium as a by-product from the tailings of a uranium processing plant poses many problems. In this study vanadium is recovered from impounded resin-in-pulp tailings and from the current tailings of a uranium plant which did not include a circuit for vanadium recovery in its initial design. Since the vanadium content is quite low, … Read more

Uranium Ore Processing Methods

The process flowsheet of Uranium generally outlines the latest proven processes for uranium concentration known as “Resin In Pulp” more commonly referred to as RIP To date it is not applicable to ores containing vanadium, where the vanadium must be recovered. Crushing Uranium Ore Depending upon ore shipment schedules, it is desirable to operate the … Read more
