Development of an Ion Exchange Process for the Recovery of Vanadium (open access)

Development of an Ion Exchange Process for the Recovery of Vanadium

A process for recovering vanadium from acid leach liquors by ion exchange using either columns or resin-in-pulp has been developed. The process is economically feasible, and operating techniques were developed which made the process practical from an operating standpoint. The theory, chemistry, and characteristics of the vanadium ion exchange process are fully discussed.

Laboratory Development of an Electromagnetic Test for Uranium Quality (open access)

Laboratory Development of an Electromagnetic Test for Uranium Quality

An electromagnetic instrument similar to the Multitest was built and used to test 2200 uranium slugs. It was found that the equipment could be used to detect inclusions and cracks in the uranium, but that small cracks are not readily detectable on a production basis unless the material is absolutely uniform in inclusion content. The instrument can be used, however, to sort out hidden defects of a reasonable size and to reject grossly dirty uranium.

Additional Extraction and Ion Exchange Studies of Temple Mountain District Ores (open access)

Additional Extraction and Ion Exchange Studies of Temple Mountain District Ores

Uranium extraction of 95% has been obtained from samples of Temple Mountain ore by a cyclic test procedure in which the new feed was not roasted. This procedure involved acid leaching the ore, flotation and roasting of the carbonaceous material, and acid leaching the roaster calcine.

Ion Exchange Tests on Liquor and Pulps Produced From Utex Ores (open access)

Ion Exchange Tests on Liquor and Pulps Produced From Utex Ores

Leach liquors produced from Utex ore by cold leaching, hot leaching and pugging proved amenable to the ion exchange process. In addition, a resin-in-pulp system was operated using the Lucite Winchester sells on Utex pulp produced by cold leaching.
