Process for the extraction of arsenic from aqueous solutions containing alkali metal carbonate, sulfate and hydroxide or hydrogen carbonate and at least one metal including vanadium uranium and molybdenum

Patent Maurel, P.

A process for extracting arsenic from aqueous solutions containing alkali metal carbonate, sulfate and hydroxide or hydrogen carbonate, at least one metal selected from the group consisting of vanadium, uranium and molybdenum in the form of an alkali metal salt, and inorganic and/or organic impurities comprises the steps of caustifying the solution with lime to convert the alkali metal carbonates into hydroxides to precipitate the insoluble calcium salts formed, concentrating the solution by evaporation of the effluent liquids originating from the caustification step to obtain a precipitate substantially comprising alkali metal sulfate. The caustification is performed in two steps consistingmore »« less
Process for the purification of solutions containing alkali metal carbonate, sulphate, hydroxide or possibly hydrogen carbonate, and one at least of the metals vanadium, uranium and molybdenum

Patent Maurel, P.; Nicolas, F.

A process is claimed for extracting molybdenum from aqueous solutions containing alkali metal carbonate, sulphate, hydroxide or hydrogen carbonate and, primarily, one at least of the metals belonging to the group formed by vanadium, uranium and molybdenum, in the form of alkali metal salts, and mineral and/or organic impurities. The said solutions result from an ore attack cycle and are taken off after extraction of the metal being sought, in the form of a concentrate. These said solutions are caustified by the addition of a suitable amount of lime, converting the carbonate present into alkali metal hydroxide. A first precipitatemore »« less
Process for obtaining molybdenum as a useful product from molybdeniferous solutions containing alkali metal carbonate, sulphate, hydroxide or hydrogen carbonate and possibly uranium

Patent Maurel, P.

A process is claimed for obtaining molybdenum as a useful product from aqueous solutions to be purified, according to claim 1 of French patent No. 2,404,601, which contain, besides molybdenum, alkali metal carbonate, sulphate, hydroxide or hydrogen carbonate and which may also contain uranium, and inorganic and/or organic impurities. These solutions are treated at a temperature which is at most equal to the boiling temperature by means of lime to convert the alkali metal carbonate into hydroxide and to precipitate the insoluble calcium salts formed, then separating and washing the first precipitate which essentially contains calcium carbonate, from an alkalimore »« less
PROCESS FOR RECOVERY OF URANIUM AND VANADIUM FROM CARBONATE SOLUTIONS BY REDUCTION-PRECIPITATION

Patent Ellis, D.A.; Lindblom, R.O.

A process employing carbonate leaching of ores and an advantageous methcd of recovering the uranium and vanadium from the leach solution is described. The uranium and vanadium can be precipitated from carbonate leach solutions by reaction with sodium amalgam leaving the leach solution in such a condition that it is economical to replenish for recycling. Such a carbonate leach solution is treated with a dilute sodium amalgam having a sodium concentration within a range of about 0.01 to 0.5% of sodium. Efficiency of the treatment is dependent on at least three additional factors, intimacy of contact of the amalgam withmore »« less
URANIUM ORE-CARBONATE LEACH PROCESS INVOLVING ADDITION OF CHLORINE, ALKALI METAL HYPOCHLORITE OR AMMONIUM HYPOCHLORITE TO PREGNANT LIQUOR DERIVED THEREFROM

Patent Lewis, C.J.

It is proposed that the recovery of U from its ore may be increased by contacting liquid formed in the carbonate leach process with chlorine or certain hypochlorites. The U ore is leached with a basic carbonate solution and the resulting slurry is filtered to produce a pregnant liquor containing soluble U. Chlorine gas may be bubbled through the pregnant liquor or an alkali metal hypochlorite or ammonium hypochlorite may be added. After sufficient contact time, the U is precipitated by addition of a hydroxide. (A.G.W.)
